Akirins in sea lice: First steps towards a deeper understanding
Experimental Parasitology, 2013Sea lice (Copepoda, Caligidae) are the most widely distributed marine pathogens in the salmon industry. Vaccination could be an environmentally friendly alternative for sea lice control; however, research on the development of such vaccines is still at an early stage of development.

Control of multiple arthropod vector infestations with subolesin/akirin vaccines
Vaccine, 2013Diseases transmitted by arthropod vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks and sand flies greatly impact human and animal health and thus their control is important for the eradication of vector-borne diseases (VBD). Vaccination is an environmentally friendly alternative for vector control that allows control of several VBD by targeting their common vector ...

Akirins Clarify NF-κB Signaling
Science Signaling, 2008Once again, the fruit fly has proven an invaluable tool for revealing information about the immune responses involving the transcription factor nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), as Beutler and Moresco emphasize. Goto et al . performed a genome-wide RNA interference (RNAi) screen in cultured Drosophila

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2021
Animal defense system constitutes a series of distinct mechanisms that specifically defend against microbial invasion. Understanding these complex biological mechanisms is of paramount importance for implementing disease prevention strategies. In this study, the transcription factor, Akirin-2 was identified from ornamental fish Amphiprion clarkii and ...

Akirin, which are members of the NF-κB signaling pathway, play critical roles in regulating the expression of antimicrobial peptides. In the present study, the Akirin gene from Penaeus monodon was identified from a transcriptome database and designated as PmAkirin.

Veterinary Parasitology, 2011
Diseases caused by arthropod-borne pathogens greatly impact on human and animal health. Recent research has provided evidence that tick protective antigens can be used for development of vaccines with the dual target of controlling arthropod infestations and reducing their vector capacity for pathogens.

Vertebrate akirin genes usually form a family with one-to-three members that regulate gene expression during the innate immune response, carcinogenesis and myogenesis. We recently established that an expanded family of eight akirin genes is conserved across salmonid fish.

Abstract Akirin is a nuclear protein that controls development in vertebrates and invertebrates. The function of Akirin has not been assessed in any Coleopteran insects. We found that high levels of akirin transcripts in Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata

Characterization of Aedes albopictus akirin for the control of mosquito and sand fly infestations
2017The control of arthropod vectors of pathogens that affect human and animal health is important for the eradication of vector-borne diseases. Recent evidences showed a reduction in the survival and/or fertility of mosquitoes, sand flies and poultry red mites fed in vitro with antibodies against the recombinant Aedes albopictus akirin.
