Substance use disorders, comorbidity, and arrest among Indigenous adolescents
(SAGE Publications, 2015-12)
Indigenous adolescents are overrepresented at multiple stages of the justice system, but we know very little about the role that mental health, particularly substance use disorder, plays in Indigenous pathways to arrest. ...
Mosquito ingestion of antibodies against mosquito midgut microbiota improves conversion of ookinetes to oocysts for Plasmodium falciparum, but not P. yoelii
(Elsevier BV, 2011-07-13)
The mosquito midgut is a site of complex interactions between the mosquito, the malaria parasite and the resident bacterial flora. In laboratory experiments, we observed significant enhancement of Plasmodium falciparum ...
Noninfectious sporozoites in the salivary glands of a minimally susceptible anopheline mosquito
(American Society of Parasitologists, 1995-12)
In studies to evaluate vector-malaria parasite relationships, we have found that Anopheles albimanus is minimally susceptible to the rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium yoelii. Normally, less than 10% of A. albimanus develop ...
Olfactory responses of Amblyomma maculatum to rumen fluid and other odourants that attract blood-seeking arthropods
(Wiley, 2020)
Amblyomma maculatum Koch (Ixodida: Ixodidae) has emerged as a significant vector of human and companion animal diseases in the U.S.A. When expanding in range, A. maculatum can be difficult to collect in the field and control ...
First detection of Rickettsia typhi and Rickettsia felis in fleas collected from client-owned companion animals in the southern Great Plains
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2017-03-25)
Flea-borne rickettsiosis occurs worldwide and includes a number of pathogens, namely, Rickettsia typhi and Rickettsia felis. Most studies in the United States have occurred in southern Texas and California where flea-borne ...
Plasmodium falciparum: Release of circumsporozoite protein by sporozoites in the mosquito vector
(Elsevier BV, 1992)
The release of circumsporozoite (CS) protein by Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites was investigated to identify factors regulating this process within infected Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes. The potential for sporozoites to ...
Population dynamics of Plasmodium falciparum sporogony in laboratory-infected Anopheles gambiae
(American Society of Parasitologists, 1992)
The population dynamics of cultured Plasmodium falciparum parasites was examined during their sporogonic development in Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes. Estimates of absolute densities were determined for each life stage, and ...
