Similarly, in mosquitoes, LDs accumulate in midgut cells in response toand Sindbis virus or when the native microbiota proliferates, following a blood meal. Also, constitutive activation of Toll and IMD pathways by knocking-down their respective negative modulators (Cactus and Caspar) increases LDs ...
Viruses are tiny agents that can infect a variety of living organisms, including bacteria, plants, and animals. Like other viruses, the dengue virus is a microscopic structure that can only replicate inside a host organism. Who discovered the dengue virus? How many types of dengue viruses are ...
COLOMBO, Dec. 12 (Xinhua) -- The Sri Lankan government is to begin trialling a special bacteria as part of a program to eradicate the dengue virus, local media reports, quoting Health Ministry officials said here Thursday. Deputy Director General of the Health Ministry Paba Palihawadana said ...
The dengue virus is passed between humans by infected mosquitoes, but a type of bacteria called Wolbachia can interrupt transmission of the disease. Health officials say a pilot program launched in Niteroi in 2015, in which scientists breed mosquitoes to carry the Wolbachia bacteria, has helped the...
virus or bacteria, based on how they are recognized by the immune system. Dengue virus 1 (DEN-1) was first discovered in Japan in the 1940s. The other three viruses,DEN-2,DEN-3, andDEN-4, are closely related to DEN-1, but are not recognized as the same virus by the immune ...
bacteria-carrying offspring when infected females mate with infected males. InA. aegyptithis in theory ultimately causes a reduction in the number of mosquitoes carrying the dengue virus. The first successful establishment ofWolbachiain naturalA. aegyptipopulations was reported in 2011. In 2017, ...
Flavivirus VLPs have been produced in a wide variety of expression platforms such as plants, insect cells, bacteria, yeast and mammalian cells. Flavivi- rus VLPs, which do not contain a viral nucleocapsid or genomic RNA, are smaller than intact virions [9–12]. VLPs, often, share ...

bacteria, zymosan (Zy) or 20 μM heme (Hm) were stained with osmium tetroxide and the number of LDs per cell following different types of stimuli were counted on an optical microscope and represented in the graph.(G,H)Aag2 cells mock infected (G) or infected with Dengue 2 virus (H...
