A single-cell atlas of the <i>Culex tarsalis</i> midgut during West Nile virus infection
2024-07-24
Abstract excerpt
The mosquito midgut functions as a key interface between pathogen and vector. However, studies of midgut physiology and virus infection dynamics are scarce, and in Culex tarsalis – an extremely efficient vector of West Nile virus (WNV) – nonexistent. We performed single-cell RNA sequencing on Cx. tarsalis midguts, defined multiple cell types, and determined whether specific cell types are more permissive to WNV...
