Ambivalent Roles of Oxidative Stress in Triangular Relationships among Arthropod Vectors, Pathogens and Hosts [PDF]
Antioxidants, 2022 Blood-feeding arthropods, particularly ticks and mosquitoes are considered the most important vectors of arthropod-borne diseases affecting humans and animals. While feeding on blood meals, arthropods are exposed to high levels of reactive oxygen species

Host-pathogen interaction in arthropod vectors: Lessons from viral infections [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Haematophagous arthropods can harbor various pathogens including viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and nematodes. Insects possess an innate immune system comprising of both cellular and humoral components to fight against various infections.

Immunometabolism in Arthropod Vectors: Redefining Interspecies Relationships. [PDF]
Trends Parasitol, 2020 Metabolism influences biochemical networks, and arthropod vectors are endowed with an immune system that affects microbial acquisition, persistence, and transmission to humans and other animals. Here, we aim to persuade the scientific community to expand their interests in immunometabolism beyond mammalian hosts and towards arthropod vectors ...

Applications of MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry to the Identification of Parasites and Arthropod Vectors of Human Diseases [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2022 Arthropod vectors and parasites are identified morphologically or, more recently, by molecular methods. Both methods are time consuming and require expertise and, in the case of molecular methods, specific devices.

A geospatial model of entry pathways of lumpy skin disease virus introduction into Australia [PDF]
Scientific ReportsLumpy skin disease (LSD) is a disease of bovines resulting from the mechanical transmission of lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) by arthropod vectors. While LSD has never been reported in Australia, the disease has spread through Asia and recently expanded
