Tsetse EP protein protects the fly midgut from trypanosome establishment. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2010 African trypanosomes undergo a complex developmental process in their tsetse fly vector before transmission back to a vertebrate host. Typically, 90% of fly infections fail, most during initial establishment of the parasite in the fly midgut.

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

Comparative genomic analysis of six Glossina genomes, vectors of African trypanosomes
Genome Biology, 2019 Background Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) are the vectors of human and animal trypanosomiasis throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Tsetse flies are distinguished from other Diptera by unique adaptations, including lactation and the birthing of live young ...

Immunogenicity and Serological Cross-Reactivity of Saliva Proteins among Different Tsetse Species. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2015 Tsetse are vectors of pathogenic trypanosomes, agents of human and animal trypanosomiasis in Africa. Components of tsetse saliva (sialome) are introduced into the mammalian host bite site during the blood feeding process and are important for tsetse's ...
