RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool to silence endogenous mosquito and mosquito-borne
pathogen genes in vivo. As the number of studies utilizing RNAi in basic research …

Wild ruminants are susceptible to infection from generalist helminth species, which can also
infect domestic ruminants. A better understanding is required of the conditions under which …

The recently characterized small RNAs provide a new paradigm for physiological studies.
These molecules have been shown to be integral players in processes as diverse as …

Lymphatic filariasis (LF) afflicts over 60 million people worldwide and leads to severe
pathological outcomes in chronic cases. The nematode parasites (Nematoda: Filarioidea) that …

Background Veterinary diagnostics aid intervention strategies, track zoonoses, and direct
selective breeding programs in livestock. In ruminants, gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) …

Nematode excretory-secretory (ES) products are essential for the establishment and maintenance
of infections in mammals and are valued as therapeutic and diagnostic targets. While …

Simple Summary RNA interference (RNAi) is a widely conserved antiviral mechanism
whereby double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is identified and degraded in cells through the RNAi …

Mosquito-borne diseases continue to remain major threats to human and animal health and
impediments to socioeconomic development. Increasing mosquito resistance to chemical …

Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a chronic debilitating neglected tropical disease (NTD) caused by
mosquito-transmitted nematodes that afflicts over 60 million people. Control of LF relies on …

Toxic Sugar Baits (TSBs) are an inexpensive and field-applicable approach to deliver a
variety of insecticides to sugar-seeking mosquitoes. We reasoned that carbohydrate chemistry …
