Towards improving tsetse fly paratransgenesis: stable colonization of Glossina morsitans morsitans with genetically modified Sodalis

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2018
Background Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) refractory to trypanosome infection are currently being explored as potential tools to contribute in the control of human and animal African trypanosomiasis.

An alternative approach to detect Trypanosoma in Glossina (Diptera, Glossinidae) without dissection

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2008
Background: Determining if a tsetse fly is infected by trypanosomes and thus potentially able to transmit trypanosome-related human and animal diseases is an extremely laborious and time-consuming task to perform, especially under field conditions.

Additional file 8: Figure S4. of Tsetse fly tolerance to T. brucei infection: transcriptome analysis of trypanosome-associated changes in the tsetse fly salivary gland

open access: yes, 2016
The JAK/STAT signaling pathway in tsetse fly. The yellow squares represent members of the pathway in Glossina morsitans genome; the hexagon constitutive negative regulator; the transparent figures indicate a transcript that had no reads or the orthologue

Tsetse fly induced humoral responses in mice.

open access: yes, 2014
Long-term follow-up of (A) the anti-G. m. morsitans saliva IgG responses and (B) the anti-rTsal1 IgG responses in mice (n = 8/group) exposed to 4 different tsetse fly biting intensities (1 versus 10 flies) and frequencies (single versus weekly exposure ...

Interactions between trypanosomes and tsetse flies

open access: yes, 2008
African trypanosomes are insect-borne parasites that cause sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in domesticated animals. Successful transmission is the outcome of crosstalk between the trypanosome and its insect vector, the tsetse fly. This enables the
