Human African trypanosomiasis : current status and eradication efforts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Epidemics of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) in the 20th century led to millions of deaths. However, since the start of the twenty-first century, there is been a continued decline in the number of reported cases, due to increased investment and ...

Laboratory colonisation and genetic bottlenecks in the tsetse fly Glossina pallidipes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background The IAEA colony is the only one available for mass rearing of Glossina pallidipes, a vector of human and animal African trypanosomiasis in eastern Africa. This colony is the source for Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) programs in East Africa.

Large-scale and significant expression from pseudogenes in Sodalis glossinidius – a facultative bacterial endosymbiont [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The majority of bacterial genomes have high coding efficiencies, but there are some genomes of intracellular bacteria that have low gene density. The genome of the endosymbiont Sodalis glossinidius contains almost 50 % pseudogenes containing mutations ...

Glossina palpalis gambiensis (Tsetse Fly) [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Parasitology, 2020
Glossina palpalis gambiensis is a riverine tsetse species endemic in West Africa and thriving in riparian vegetation of the savannah areas from Burkina Faso and Mali to Guinea and Senegal. It is a major vector of human and animal trypanosomosis (sleeping sickness and nagana, respectively) in that region. G. p.

Amélioration de la technique de salivation des glossines pour la détection des métatrypanosomes infectants : étude de quelques facteurs biologiques et non biologiques sur le comportement de sondage des glossines

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1995
Le comportement de sondage et de salivation sur lame chauffée est examiné chez trois espèces ou sous-espèces de glossines (Glossina morsitans morsitans, Glossina palpalis gambiensis, Glossina tachinoides) en fonction de certains paramètres (espèce, sexe,

Genome analysis of a Glossina pallidipes salivary gland hypertrophy virus reveals a novel, large, double-stranded circular DNA virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Several species of tsetse flies can be infected by the Glossina pallidipes salivary gland hypertrophy virus (GpSGHV). Infection causes salivary gland hypertrophy and also significantly reduces the fecundity of the infected flies. To better understand the

Proteomic analysis of Glossina pallidipes salivary gland hypertrophy virus virions for immune intervention in tsetse fly colonies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Many species of tsetse flies (Diptera: Glossinidae) can be infected by a virus that causes salivary gland hypertrophy (SGH). The viruses isolated from Glossina pallidipes (GpSGHV) and Musca somestica (MdSGHV) have recently been sequenced.

Amélioration de la technique de dissection du tractus digestif et des glandes salivaires des glossines pour la mise en évidence des divers stades de développement des trypanosomes

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1994
Les auteurs décrivent une technique améliorée de dissection de l'intestin moyen et des glandes salivaires des glossines. En ajoutant à la dissection le proventricule, la méthode permet d'obtenir un tableau plus complet du développement des trypanosomes ...
