KDR Activating Mutations in Human Angiosarcomas Are Sensitive to Specific Kinase Inhibitors [PDF]
Abstract Angiosarcomas (AS) represent a heterogeneous group of malignant vascular tumors occurring not only in different anatomic locations but also in distinct clinical settings, such as radiation or associated chronic lymphedema. Although representing only 1% to 2% of soft tissue sarcomas, vascular sarcomas provide unique insight into ...

A pre-intervention study of malaria vector abundance in Rio Muni, Equatorial Guinea: their role in malaria transmission and the incidence of insecticide resistance alleles. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Following the success of the malaria control intervention on the island of Bioko, malaria control by the use of indoor residual spraying (IRS) and long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLITN) was extended to Rio Muni, on the mainland part of

F1534S <i>kdr</i> mutation drives the geographical heterogeneity of pyrethroid resistance in <i>Aedes albopictus</i> from Hangzhou, China. [PDF]
IntroductionThe rapid evolution of insecticide resistance in mosquitoes has substantially compromised control efficacy against Aedes albopictus. This study aimed to evaluate the resistance levels to commonly used insecticides in field populations of Ae ...

Functional analysis of a rat sodium channel carrying a mutation for insect knock-down resistance (kdr) to pyrethroids [PDF]
Pyrethroid insensitivity in resistant (kdr) insects has been correlated with a leucine to phenylalanine replacement in the S6 transmembrane segment of domainII of the axonal sodium channel α(para)-subunit.

Modifications of pyrethroid effects associated with kdr mutation in Anopheles gambiae
Summary Effects of knockdown resistance ( kdr ) were investigated in three pyrethroid‐resistant (RR) strains of the Afrotropical mosquito Anopheles gambiae Giles (Diptera: Culicidae): Kou from Burkina Faso, Tola and Yao from Côte d ...

Reduced efficacy of insecticide-treated nets and indoor residual spraying for malaria control in pyrethroid resistance area, Benin. [PDF]
The pyrethroid knockdown resistance gene (kdr) has become widespread in Anopheles gambiae in West Africa. A trial to test the continuing efficacy of insecticide-treated nets (ITN) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) was undertaken in experimental huts at ...
