The complexities of blood‐feeding patterns in mosquitoes and sandflies and the burden of disease: A minireview

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 5, September 2024.
Mosquitoes and phlebotomine sandflies are infectious disease vectors through hematophagy. The development of hematophagy likely provided an evolutionary advantage, offering a rich nutrient source for reproduction. These insects exhibit diverse blood‐feeding patterns, from invertebrates to various vertebrates. Multiple sensory cues to guide host‐seeking

N‐Pyrazolyl‐ and N‐Triazolylamines and ‐Ureas as Antileishmanial and Antitrypanosomal Drugs

ChemMedChem, Volume 19, Issue 15, August 1, 2024.
Within the framework of “drugs for neglected disease initiative (DNDi)”, novel relationships between the structure of 3‐arylpyrazoles and 3‐aryl‐1,2,4‐triazoles with different substituents in 5‐position and their antileishmanial and antitrypanosomal activity are investigated Activity against L. infantum is not detected.

Late‐Stage Diversification of Pyrazoles as Antileishmanial Agents

ChemMedChem, Volume 19, Issue 8, April 16, 2024.
Within the framework of “drugs for neglected disease initiative (DNDi)”, Pd‐catalyzed Sonogashira and Suzuki‐Miyaura cross‐coupling reactions were used to introduce diverse substituents in 3‐position of pyrazoles. The 5‐position of pyrazoles was supplied with amino, acylamino and ureido moieties.

The Phlebotomine sand fly fauna of Switzerland revisited

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 13-22, March 2024.
A new inventory of Phlebotomine sand flies of Switzerland has been created. Four species were recorded south to the Alps: Phlebotomus perniciosus, P. neglectus, P. mascittii and Sergentomyia minuta; and only P. mascittii north to the Alps. Phlebotomus neglectus is recorded for the first time in the country, most probably spreading from Northern Italy ...
