Tularemia as a Mosquito-Borne Disease [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2020 Francisella tularensis (Ft) is the etiological agent of tularemia, a disease known for over 100 years in the northern hemisphere. Ft includes four subspecies, of which two are the etiologic agents of tularemia: Ft subsp.

Use of Microbiota to Fight Mosquito-Borne Disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 Mosquito-borne diseases cause more than 700 million people infected and one million people die (Caraballo and King, 2014). With the limitations of progress toward elimination imposed by insecticide- and drug-resistance, combined with the lack of vaccines,

Symbiotic control of mosquito borne disease [PDF]
Pathogens and Global Health, 2012 It is well accepted that the symbiotic relationships insects have established with several microorganisms have had a key role in their evolutionary success. Bacterial symbiosis is also prevalent in insects that are efficient disease vectors, and numerous studies have sought to decrypt the basic mechanisms of the host-symbiont relationships and develop

Thermal biology of mosquito-borne disease. [PDF]
Ecol Lett, 2019 AbstractMosquito‐borne diseases cause a major burden of disease worldwide. The vital rates of these ectothermic vectors and parasites respond strongly and nonlinearly to temperature and therefore to climate change. Here, we review how trait‐based approaches can synthesise and mechanistically predict the temperature dependence of transmission across ...

Mosquitoes and Mosquito-Borne Diseases in Vietnam
Insects, 2022 Mosquito-borne diseases pose a significant threat to humans in almost every part of the world. Key factors such as global warming, climatic conditions, rapid urbanisation, frequent human relocation, and widespread deforestation significantly increase the

Emerging challenges for mosquito-borne disease control and the promise of symbiont-based transmission-blocking strategies. [PDF]
PLoS PathogensMosquitoes serve as vectors for a variety of pathogens that cause life-threatening diseases, such as malaria, dengue, Zika, and yellow fever. With the rise of antimalarial drug resistance and a lack of therapeutics or prophylactics for dengue and Zika ...

Integrated strategies for mosquito-borne disease control: a comprehensive review with emphasis on repellents and China’s practices [PDF]
Parasites & VectorsMosquito-borne diseases cause millions of deaths every year, imposing a heavy burden on global public health systems and socioeconomic development. In China, mosquito-borne diseases exhibit a pattern of imported cases leading to localized transmission ...

RNA Interference for Mosquito and Mosquito-Borne Disease Control [PDF]
Insects, 2017 RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool to silence endogenous mosquito and mosquito-borne pathogen genes in vivo. As the number of studies utilizing RNAi in basic research grows, so too does the arsenal of physiological targets that can be developed ...
