Development of miRNA-Based Approaches to Explore the Interruption of Mosquito-Borne Disease Transmission.

MicroRNA (miRNA or miR)-based approaches to interrupt the transmission of mosquito-borne diseases have been explored since 2005. A review of these studies and areas in which to proceed is needed. In this review, significant progress is reviewed at the level of individual miRNAs, and miRNA diversification and relevant confounders are described in detail.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Motschulsky, 1863 (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae).

is the largest genus in the tribe Penthimiini of the subfamily Deltocephalinae. To date, there are no available mitogenome sequences from . In this study, we have sequenced and annotated the complete mitogenome of (Motschulsky 1863), the mitogenome is 15,308 bp in length, which including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs) and a long non-coding region (control Region), base composition of whole sequences are A (50.

China's practice to prevent and control COVID-19 in the context of large population movement.

Background: The emerging infectious disease, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), poses a serious threat in China and worldwide. Challenged by this serious situation, China has taken many measures to contain its transmission. This study aims to systematically review and record these special and effective practices, in hope of benefiting for fighting against the ongoing worldwide pandemic.

Antivirus effectiveness of ivermectin on dengue virus type 2 in Aedes albopictus.

Background: Dengue fever is the most rapidly spreading mosquito-borne viral disease over the past 50 years, with a 30-fold increase in global incidence. Dengue vector control is a key component for the dengue control strategy, since no absolutely effective vaccine or drug is available yet. However, the rapid rise and spread of mosquito insecticide resistance have become major threats to the efficiency of insecticide-based vector control activities.

[Study on cyfluthrin resistance and its mechanisms of in Nanchang frontierport].

Objective: To study the cyfluthrin resistance and potential mechanisms of in Nanchang Chang-bei International Airport, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province.

Methods: The resistance levels of the local were detected by WHO drug resistance bioassay. During the bioassay, the dying mosquitos were classed as sensitive mosquitos, and the survival ones were classed as resistant mosquitos.

[Changes of pyrethroid resistance and P450 monooxygenase activity with age in Anopheles sinensis in Huainan City, Anhui Province, China].

Objective: To study the effect of mosquito age on the pyrethroid resistance and P450 monooxygenase activity in Anopheles sinensis in Huainan City, Anhui Province, China, as well as the molecular mechanism of pyrethroid resistance.

Methods: Anopheles mosquito larvae were collected in fields, and were emerged to adults. Then the pyrethroid resistance and P450 monooxygenase activity of female mosquitoes were detected 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 d and 20 d after emergence.
