Susceptibility of Aedes scapularis (Rondani, 1848) to Dirofilaria immitis (Leidy, 1856), an Emerging Zoonosis [PDF]
Dirofilaria immitis is the causative agent of canine heartworm, a well known parasitic cardiopulmonary disease of dogs and cats, that can also affect man. When this nematode infects man the disease is difficult to diagnose, but even so there are more than 200 cases of human pulmonary dirofilariasis reported throughout the world. {P}

Extracellular Vesicles in Arthropods: Biogenesis, Functions, Isolation Methods and Applications. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound nanoparticles secreted by cells that are involved in multiple forms of intercellular communication and show promising potential for biotechnological applications. Arthropod‐derived EV research remains relatively fragmented in contrast to the extensively studied mammalian EV field. In this review,

O virus do mixoma no coelho do mato (Sylvilagus minenses), sua transmissão pelos Aedes scapularis e aegypti [PDF]
The brazilian wild rabbit (Sylvilagus minensis) is sensible to the virus of the mixomatosis but the desease takes on it a mild character, lasts for long time and generally do not kill the animal. The tumors are generally smaller and less numerous than those of the domestic rabbit, but sometimes there were noted large and flat lesions (fig. 3).
