The RNA interference response to alphanodavirus replication in Phlebotomus papatasi sand fly cells
Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 687-696, December 2024.Both the siRNA and piRNA pathways are transcriptionally active in Phlebotomus papatasi PP9ad cells. Assembly of small RNA sequencing identifies an adventitious nodavirus (American nodavirus [ANV]) in PP9ad cells. ANV is actively replicating in PP9ad cells and is targeted by the exo‐siRNA pathway but not the piRNA pathway.

Ecological determinants of leishmaniasis vector, Lutzomyia spp.: A scoping review
Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 393-406, December 2024.Lutzomyia spp. survival is impacted by climatic, habitat and geodemographic factors. Lutzomyia spp. have demonstrated a wide range of temperature tolerance, ranging from 11 to 30°C. There is limited research on this topic, posing a significant challenge for future studies. Abstract Leishmania spp. are zoonotic parasites transmitted by phlebotomine sand

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 573-585, December 2024.We provide the currently known sand fly distribution and species diversity in Kosovo, including a COI barcode inventory and distribution maps. Phlebotomus neglectus and Ph. perfiliewi were identified to be the predominant species and environmental analyses depicted two geographical groups of sand flies in Kosovo, with notable differences between the ...

Investigation of Viral, Bacterial and Parasitic Zoonotic Diseases in Rodents in Turkey
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 6, November 2024.Rodents are reservoir hosts for zoonotic pathogens. In this study, the presence of viral lymphocytic choriomeningitis and hantavirus infections, bacterial tularaemia and leptospirosis, and parasitic leishmaniasis and toxoplasmosis were investigated in 498 rodents collected in Erzurum province, Turkey.

Risk factors for visceral leishmaniasis in a new epidemic site in Amhara Region, Ethiopia [PDF]
, 2009 We conducted a case-control study to evaluate risk factors for visceral leishmaniasis during an epidemic in a previously unaffected district of Ethiopia. We also collected blood and bone marrow specimens from dogs in the outbreak villages.

A case–control study on risk factors for visceral leishmaniasis in West Pokot County, Kenya
Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 29, Issue 10, Page 904-912, October 2024.Abstract Background Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a severe parasitic disease transmitted by phlebotomine sandflies. VL is endemic in West Pokot County, Kenya, where effective strategies to interrupt transmission are impeded by the limited understanding of VL risk factors.

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
