Genetic structure of Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae) populations in China and relationship with the knockdown resistance mutations

Infectious Diseases of Poverty, 2023
Background Mosquito control is needed to prevent dengue fever, which is mainly spread by Aedes albopictus in China. Application of insecticides is one of the main mosquito control methods; however, this approach can fail due to the knockdown resistance ...

Triggered Calcium Lightning Programs Cochlear Development

Exploration, EarlyView.
Summary: Before the onset of hearing, the developing inner ear generates spontaneous calcium signals that are thought to guide maturation. In this study, we discovered a rapid and widespread calcium flash—dubbed “Ca2+ lightning”—originating from supporting cells beneath the sensory hair cells, which triggers coordinated calcium waves across the entire ...

Pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles gambiae, in Bomi County, Liberia, compromises malaria vector control. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Long Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLIN) and Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) have both proven to be effective malaria vector control strategies in Africa and the new technology of insecticide treated durable wall lining (DL) is being evaluated ...

kdr mutations and deltamethrin resistance in house flies in Abu Dhabi, UAE

Parasites & Vectors
Abstract Background The house fly, Musca domestica, is a significant carrier of diseases that can impact public health. Repeated use of pyrethroid insecticides may act as a selection pressure for mutations and amino acid substitutions in the house fly voltage-sensitive sodium channel (VSSC), which ultimately confers ...

No evidence of an increased prevalence of knockdown resistance in the English grain aphid Sitobion avenae following the EU ban on neonicotinoids in Ireland

Irish Journal of Agricultural and Food Research
The English grain aphid Sitobion avenae is a major pest of cereals in Europe, with control hindered by pyrethroid resistance in a single clonal lineage (SA3) due to a mutation in the voltage-gated sodium channel gene (knockdown resistance or kdr).

First report of N1575Y mutation in pyrethroid resistant Anopheles gambiae s.l. in Nigeria

Scientific African, 2020
In view of recent findings that codon 1575 mutation increases the L1014F-mediated resistance in Anopheles mosquitoes, we investigated the presence of this mutation in four States with intense pyrethroid resistance in Nigeria.

α2,3‐Sialyltransferase (ST3Gal1) regulates endometrioid‐type epithelial ovarian cancer cell migration and invasion via VEGF‐R2/JAK2/STAT3 signaling cascades

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To investigate the role of ST3 β‐galactoside α‐2,3‐sialyltransferase 1 (ST3Gal1) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGF‐R2) in endometrioid‐type epithelial ovarian cancer (E‐OC) because aberrant α2,3‐sialylation mediated by ST3Gal1 and VEGF‐R2‐related angiogenesis is linked with tumor progression. Methods ST3Gal1 and
