A Tubular Network Associated with the Brush-Border Surface of the Aedes Aegypti Midgut: Implications for Pathogen Transmission by Mosquitoes

15 May 2000

Abstract excerpt

The mosquito Aedes aegypti is capable of transmitting a variety of pathogens to man and to other vertebrates. The midgut of this insect has been well-studied both as the tissue where the first contact occurs between ingested pathogens and the insect host, and as a model system for blood meal digestion in blood-sucking insects. To understand better the nature of the midgut surface encountered by parasites or...
