Viral Dynamic Model‐Informed Dose Selection of Mosnodenvir Prophylaxis against DENV‐3 in a Controlled Human Infection Model

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Dengue virus (DENV) infection is a significant global health threat. Mosnodenvir (JNJ‐64281802) is a pan‐serotype small molecule antiviral blocking DENV replication. A Phase IIa study (NCT05048875) evaluated the antiviral activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics of mosnodenvir as prophylaxis against DENV‐3 in a controlled human infection model (CHIM).

Impacts of differential mosquito control treatment regimens on insecticide susceptibility status of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)

SN Applied Sciences, 2022
Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) is an invasive mosquito species and notable vector of several pathogens in the USA. Their cryptic and anthropophilic nature puts this species in close association with humans, where they can also be a nuisance.

Genetic Control Of Malaria Mosquitoes [PDF]

Trends in Parasitology, 2016
Experiments demonstrating the feasibility of genetically modifying mosquito vectors to impair their ability to transmit the malaria parasite have been known for well over a decade. However, means to spread resistance or population control genes into wild mosquito populations remains an unsolved challenge.

Drosophila male genitalia rotation depends on permissive remodeling of the posterior abdomen

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background One of the most characteristic morphogenetic processes in Drosophila is the 360° rotation of the male pupal genital disc. This movement is driven by the myosin Myo1D, whose expression in the genital disc is controlled by the Hox gene Abdominal‐B (Abd‐B).

Recombinant bacteria for mosquito control [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2003
SUMMARY Bacterial insecticides have been used for the control of nuisance and vector mosquitoes for more than two decades. Nevertheless, due primarily to their high cost and often only moderate efficacy, these insecticides remain of limited use in tropical countries where mosquito-borne diseases are prevalent.
