An investigation into the protein composition of the teneral Glossina morsitans morsitans peritrophic matrix. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Negl Trop Dis, 2014
Tsetse flies serve as biological vectors for several species of African trypanosomes. In order to survive, proliferate and establish a midgut infection, trypanosomes must cross the tsetse fly peritrophic matrix (PM), which is an acellular gut lining surrounding the blood meal.

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,

Peptidomics of Neuropeptidergic Tissues of the Tsetse FlyGlossina morsitans morsitans [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2015
Neuropeptides and peptide hormones are essential signaling molecules that regulate nearly all physiological processes. The recent release of the tsetse fly genome allowed the construction of a detailed in silico neuropeptide database (International Glossina Genome Consortium, Science 344, 380-386 (2014)), as well as an in-depth mass spectrometric ...

Characterization of a neuropeptide F receptor in the tsetse fly, Glossina morsitans morsitans [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Insect Physiology, 2016
Neuropeptides related to mammalian neuropeptide Y (NPY) and insect neuropeptide F (NPF) are conserved throughout Metazoa and intimately involved in a wide range of biological processes. In insects NPF is involved in regulating feeding, learning, stress and reproductive behavior.

Lipid metabolism dysfunction following symbiont elimination is linked to altered Kennedy pathway homeostasis

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Lipid metabolism is critical for insect reproduction, especially for species that invest heavily in the early developmental stages of their offspring. The role of symbiotic bacteria during this process is understudied but likely essential.
