Are Haematophagous Insects Vectors for HTLV-I? [PDF]
, 1987 Human T-lymphotropic virus I (HTLV-I) and its associated malignancy, adult T-cell leukaemia [19, 30, 31, 37] are endemic in southern Japan [18, 26], the Caribbean Basin and neighbouring mainland America [1, 6, 10, 14, 23], and sub-Saharan Africa [5, 20, 38].

The JAK-STAT pathway promotes persistent viral infection by activating apoptosis in insect vectors
PLoS Pathogens, 2023 The Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway is an evolutionarily conserved signaling pathway that can regulate various biological processes.

A plant cytorhabdovirus modulates locomotor activity of insect vectors to enhance virus transmission
Nature Communications, 2023 Transmission of many plant viruses relies on phloem-feeding insect vectors. However, how plant viruses directly modulate insect behavior is largely unknown.

Overview of paratransgenesis as a strategy to control pathogen transmission by insect vectors
Parasites & Vectors, 2022 This article presents an overview of paratransgenesis as a strategy to control pathogen transmission by insect vectors. It first briefly summarises some of the disease-causing pathogens vectored by insects and emphasises the need for innovative control ...

Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals developmental heterogeneity among Plasmodium berghei sporozoites
Scientific Reports, 2021 In the malaria-causing parasite’s life cycle, Plasmodium sporozoites must travel from the midgut of a mosquito to the salivary glands before they can infect a mammalian host. However, only a fraction of sporozoites complete the journey.
