Effect of blood meals and mating on biodemographic characteristics of Aedes albopictus

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Lifespan did not differ between virgin and mated males and females. The number of blood meals (one and two) significantly reduced adult lifespan compared with those with no blood meal. The effect of the second blood meal doubled females' egg production and their reproductive output.

Zika virus tropism and interactions in myelinating neural cell cultures: CNS cells and myelin are preferentially affected [PDF]

, 2017
The recent global outbreak of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection has been linked to severe neurological disorders affecting the peripheral and central nervous systems (PNS and CNS, respectively). The pathobiology underlying these diverse clinical phenotypes are

Higher uptake of common adult vaccines in Australian blood donors: An analysis of linked registry data

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Understanding differences in blood donor vaccine uptake is essential for accurately interpreting serosurveillance of vaccine‐preventable diseases and other research using donor samples and/or data. We aimed to assess vaccination uptake in donors and non‐donors.

Comparison of the dynamics of Japanese encephalitis virus circulation in sentinel pigs between a rural and a peri-urban setting in Cambodia.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Japanese encephalitis is mainly considered a rural disease, but there is growing evidence of a peri-urban and urban transmission in several countries, including Cambodia.

A single mutation in the envelope protein modulates flavivirus antigenicity, stability, and pathogenesis [PDF]

, 2017
The structural flexibility or 'breathing' of the envelope (E) protein of flaviviruses allows virions to sample an ensemble of conformations at equilibrium.
