Precision arbovirus serology with a pan-arbovirus peptidome

Nature Communications
Arthropod-borne viruses represent a crucial public health threat. Current arboviral serology assays are either labor intensive or incapable of distinguishing closely related viruses, and many zoonotic arboviruses that may transition to humans lack any ...

From defense to offense: Modulating toll-like receptors to combat arbovirus infections

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics
Arboviruses are a significant threat to global public health, with outbreaks occurring worldwide. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a crucial role in the innate immune response against these viruses by recognizing pathogen-associated molecular patterns and

Arbovirus and seizures

Acta Epileptologica, 2020
The high prevalence and spread of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) make them an important cause of viral encephalitis in humans. Most epidemic viral encephalitides have an etiology associated with arboviruses. Among various arboviruses, the Japanese

Impact of bauxite mining on mosquito communities (Diptera: Culicidae) and pathogen transmission risks in the eastern Amazon

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Bauxite mining in the Amazon alters mosquito communities, favouring anthropophilic and generalist vectors while reducing species diversity and the variety of blood meal sources. Molecular analyses identified humans, tapirs and deer as the primary blood meal sources.

Effects of Asaia spp. on the development, size and associated microbiomes of two mosquito species of medical importance

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Addition of Asaia species to the rearing water of mosquito larvae can affect the structure of the larval microbiome, although these bacteria do not persist to the pupal stage. Asaia inoculation can increase the adult size of males of two mosquito species. The impact of Asaia inoculation on development rate and female size depended on bacterial and host

Relationships between meteorological factors and mosquito vector density in an Urban District of Shanghai, China (2018–2024)

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The effect of temperature on oviposition activity is not uniform across time. Heat stress exerts delayed population‐level impacts. Moderate temperatures favour population development while both low and high temperatures impose constraints. The delayed negative effect of warm temperatures, peaking at 2–3 weeks rather than immediately.
