Chandipura Virus Resurgence in India: Insights Into Diagnostic Tools, Antiviral Development, and Public Health Implications

Global Health, Epidemiology and Genomics, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: Chandipura virus (CHPV) is an emerging rhabdovirus primarily affecting pediatric populations in India, causing acute encephalitis syndrome (AES) with high mortality rates. First identified in 1965, CHPV has resurfaced in several outbreaks, the most recent being in 2024, with significant public health implications.

Vector soup : high-throughput identification of Neotropical phlebotomine sand flies using metabarcoding

, 2016
Phlebotomine sand flies are haematophagous dipterans of primary medical importance. They represent the only proven vectors of leishmaniasis worldwide and are involved in the transmission of various other pathogens.

TYPE OF LIGHT IN SAND FLY CAPTURES (DIPTERA:PSYCHODIDAE)

Acta Biológica Colombiana, 2012
The number of cases of visceral leishmaniasis in Brazil has been gradually increasing, and one of the strategies to reduce the transmission of this disease is based on the control of the adult forms of its vectors.

Morphological and Molecular Techniques as an Integrative Approach to Identifying Sandfly (Diptera: Psychodidae) Vectors of Leishmaniasis in the Jazan and Asir Regions, Southwestern Saudi Arabia

International Journal of Zoology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Sandflies are the primary vectors of leishmaniasis, a parasitic disease of major public health concern in Saudi Arabia. While morphological identification remains the standard for species classification in the Jazan and Asir regions, distinguishing closely related taxa is often challenging and time‐consuming.

Detection of Leishmania donovani Status in Dogs (Canis familiaris, Linnaeus, 1758) in the Karamoja Subregion of Uganda

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
To date, the reservoir host for visceral leishmaniasis, a neglected tropical disease caused by Leishmania donovani, is unknown, although studies pointing to dogs, domestic animals, and rodents are emerging. We aimed to investigate whether the dog (Canis familiaris, Linnaeus, 1758) is a potential reservoir for L.

Development of Leishmania mexicana in Lutzomyia longipalpis in the absence of sugar feeding

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2019
The leishmaniases are caused by Leishmania parasites and transmitted through the bites of phlebotomine sand flies. During parasite development inside the vector’s midgut, promastigotes move towards the stomodeal valve, a mechanism that is crucial for ...
