Global characterization of gene expression in the brain of starved immature <i>R. prolixus</i>
2022-09-02
Abstract excerpt
Background: Rhodnius prolixus is a vector of Chagas disease and has become a model organism to study physiology, behavior, and pathogen interaction. The publication of its genome allowed initiating a process of comparative characterization of the gene expression profiles of diverse organs exposed to varying conditions. Brain processes control the expression of behavior and, as such, mediate immediate adjustment t...
