Determinants of Chikungunya and O’nyong-Nyong Virus Specificity for Infection of Aedes and Anopheles Mosquito Vectors

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Mosquito-borne diseases caused by viruses and parasites are responsible for more than 700 million infections each year. Anopheles and Aedes are the two major vectors for, respectively, malaria and arboviruses.

Microbial Pre-exposure and Vectorial Competence of Anopheles Mosquitoes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Anopheles female mosquitoes can transmit Plasmodium, the malaria parasite. During their aquatic life, wild Anopheles mosquito larvae are exposed to a huge diversity of microbes present in their breeding sites.

The Effect of Secondary Metabolites Produced by Serratia marcescens on Aedes aegypti and Its Microbiota

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Serratia marcescens is a bacterial species widely found in the environment, which very efficiently colonizes mosquitoes. In this study, we isolated a red-pigmented S. marcescens strain from our mosquito colony (called S. marcescens VA).

Genome-wide transcriptome profiling and spatial expression analyses identify signals and switches of development in tapeworms

open access: yesEvoDevo, 2018
Background Tapeworms are agents of neglected tropical diseases responsible for significant health problems and economic loss. They also exhibit adaptations to a parasitic lifestyle that confound comparisons of their development with other animals ...

Membrane Chromatography-Based Downstream Processing for Cell-Culture Produced Influenza Vaccines

open access: yesVaccines, 2022
New influenza strains are constantly emerging, causing seasonal epidemics and raising concerns to the risk of a new global pandemic. Since vaccination is an effective method to prevent the spread of the disease and reduce its severity, the development of

Sialotranscriptomics of Rhipicephalus zambeziensis reveals intricate expression profiles of secretory proteins and suggests tight temporal transcriptional regulation during blood-feeding

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Ticks secrete a diverse mixture of secretory proteins into the host to evade its immune response and facilitate blood-feeding, making secretory proteins attractive targets for the production of recombinant anti-tick vaccines.

The influence of temperature and humidity on the flight activity of Culicoides imicola both under laboratory and field conditions

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Insight into the factors that regulate the circadian host-seeking flight activity of Culicoides vectors (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) will be of importance to assess the risk of transmission of Culicoides-borne pathogens.

The first detected airline introductions of yellow fever mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti) to Europe, at Schiphol International airport, the Netherlands

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Air-borne introduction of exotic mosquitoes to Schiphol airport in the Netherlands has been considered plausible based upon findings of mosquitoes in aircraft cabins during 2008, 2010 and 2011.

Lentiviral Vectors

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2004
Vectors based on lentiviruses have reached a state of development such that clinical studies using these agents as gene delivery vehicles have now begun. They have particular advantages for certain in vitro and in vivo applications especially the unique capability of integrating genetic material into the genome of non-dividing cells.
