Harnessing the Potential of mRNA Vaccines Against Infectious Diseases
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2025.RNA vaccines are promising because of their flexible design, strong immunogenicity, safety and rapid development. Recent advances have enabled mRNA vaccines to target various pathogens, including viruses such as influenza and HIV, bacteria such as Mycobacteria and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and parasites such as those causing malaria.

Rift Valley Fever in Small Ruminants, Senegal, 2003
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005 During the 2003 rainy season, the clinical and serologic incidence of Rift Valley fever was assessed in small ruminant herds living around temporary ponds located in the semi-arid region of the Ferlo, Senegal. No outbreak was detected by the surveillance

Aedes Mosquito Saliva Modulates Rift Valley Fever Virus Pathogenicity
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013 Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a severe mosquito-borne disease affecting humans and domestic ruminants. Mosquito saliva contains compounds that counteract the hemostatic, inflammatory, and immune responses of the host. Modulation of these defensive responses may facilitate virus infection. Indeed, Aedes mosquito saliva played a crucial role in the vector's

Enzootic Activity of Rift Valley Fever Virus in Senegal
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1997 In two areas of Senegal where previous evidence of Rift Valley fever (RVF) virus circulation was detected, Barkedji in the Sahelian bioclimatic zone and Kedougou in the Sudano-Guinean zone, a longitudinal study of the enzootic maintenance of RVF virus was undertaken from 1991 to 1993.
