Mosquito Akirin as a potential antigen for malaria control

  • Authors: Costa M, Custodio, de la Fuente J, Domingos A, Moreno-Cid JA, Pinheiro-Silva R, Silveira H, Villar M
  • Publication Year: 2014
  • Journal: Malaria Journal
  • Link: http://www.malariajournal.com/content/13/1/470

Recent evidences using Subolesin (SUB) and Akirin (AKR) vaccines showed a reduction in the survival and/or fertility of blood-sucking ectoparasite vectors and the infection with vector-borne pathogens. These experiments suggested the possibility of using AKR for malaria control.

Seasonal genetic partitioning in the neotropical malaria vector, Anopheles darlingi

  • Authors: Angella AF, Gil LHS, Pinto J, Ribolla PEM, Salgueiro P, Vicente JL
  • Publication Year: 2014
  • Journal: Malaria Journal
  • Link: http://www.malariajournal.com/content/13/1/203

Anopheles darlingi is the main malaria mosquito vector in the Amazonia region. In spite of being considered a riverine, forest-dwelling species, this mosquito is becoming more abundant in peri-urban areas, increasing malaria risk. This has been associated with human-driven environmental changes such as deforestation.
