20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) primes innate immune responses that limit bacteria and malaria parasite survival in <i>Anopheles gambiae</i>

2019-10-28

Abstract excerpt

Blood-feeding is an integral behavior of mosquitoes to acquire nutritional resources needed for reproduction. This requirement also enables mosquitoes to serve as efficient vectors to acquire and potentially transmit a multitude of mosquito-borne diseases, most notably malaria. Recent studies suggest that mosquito immunity is stimulated following a blood meal, independent of infection status. Since blood-feeding r...
