Blood feeding induces hemocyte proliferation and activation in the African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae Giles

1 Jan 2013

Abstract excerpt

Malaria is a global public health problem, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, where the mosquito Anopheles gambiae Giles serves as the major vector for the protozoan Plasmodium falciparum Welch. One determinant of malaria vector competence is the mosquito's immune system. Hemocytes are a critical component as they produce soluble immune factors that either support or prevent malaria parasite development. However,...
