Trypanosomes and gut microbiota interactions in triatomine bugs and tsetse flies: A vectorial perspective

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 253-268, September 2024.
Trypanosoma sp. presence modulates or has zero effect on gut microbiota composition. Microbiota presence modulates or has zero effect on Trypanosoma sp. growth. Vector biology of triatomine bugs and tsetse flies influences their gut microbiota composition.

The internal transcribed spacer 1 sequence polymorphism brings updates to tsetse species distribution in the northern Cameroon: Importance in planning efficient vector control

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 216-226, June 2024.
Many morphologically similar tsetse species are sympatric in many areas in Africa, particularly in northern Cameroon. The length polymorphism of ITS1 fragments assessed with simple PCR and migration of amplicon on a gel helped identifying these species accurately. Sympatric species were identified in areas where only one species was originally reported,

In vitro anti‐trypanosomal activity of synthetic nitrofurantoin‐triazole hybrids against Trypanosoma species causing human African trypanosomosis

Fundamental &Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 72-83, February 2024.
Abstract Human African trypanosomosis (HAT) which is also known as sleeping sickness is caused by Trypanosoma brucei gambiense that is endemic in western and central Africa and T. b. rhodesiense that is endemic in eastern and southern Africa. Drugs used for treatment against HAT first stage have limited effectiveness, and the second stage drugs have ...

Detection and characterization of Wolbachia infections in laboratory and natural populations of different species of tsetse flies (genus Glossina)

BMC Microbiology, 2012
Background Wolbachia is a genus of endosymbiotic α-Proteobacteria infecting a wide range of arthropods and filarial nematodes. Wolbachia is able to induce reproductive abnormalities such as cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI), thelytokous parthenogenesis ...

Lutte contre les glossines en République Centrafricaine

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1964
Deux opérations de lutte contre les glossines ont été réalisées en R.C.A. La première (1961) avait pour but l'assainissement de galeries forestières infestées par Glossina fusca congolensis et G. fuscipleuris.

Lutte contre Glossina fuscipes fuscipes par piégeage chez les éleveurs Mbororo de République Centrafricaine

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1991
Le "glissement" historique des éleveurs Mbororo d'ouest en est s'accélère sous divers facteurs, dont la sécheresse, et les pousse à s'installer plus loin et plus durablement dans les savanes humides infestées de glossines. Pour limiter l'usage important

Impact of a national tsetse control programme to eliminate Gambian sleeping sickness in Uganda: a spatiotemporal modelling study

BMJ Global Health
Introduction Tsetse flies (Glossina) transmit Trypanosoma brucei gambiense, which causes gambiense human African trypanosomiasis (gHAT). As part of national efforts to eliminate gHAT as a public health problem, Uganda implemented a large-scale programme ...
