Many vector-borne viruses are re-emerging as public health threats, yet our understanding of the virus-host interactions critical for productive infection remains limited. The ubiquitination of proteins, including host- and pathogen-derived proteins is a highly prominent and consistent post-translational modification that regulates protein function through signaling and degradation. Viral proteins are documented to hijack the host ubiquitination machinery to modulate multiple host processes including antiviral defense mechanisms.

After the COVID-19 pandemic, efforts have gradually been focused on medical care, epidemiological surveillance, and preventive health programs. An example of this is the identification during 2023 by the Epidemiological Surveillance System [of Mexico] of the increase in dengue cases and the presence of serotype 3, as well as cases of measles (imported and related to importation) and, at the same time, cases of human rabies with transmission from pet animals. Mexico's health system has been characterized by achievements in vaccine-preventable pathologies, as well as the robust epidemiological surveillance system for febrile exanthematous illness and vector-transmitted diseases.

Dengue fever is a mosquito-transmitted disease of great public health importance. Dengue lacks adequate vaccine protection and insecticide-based methods of mosquito control are proving increasingly ineffective. Here we review the emerging use of mosquitoes transinfected with the obligate intracellular bacterium Wolbachia pipientis for vector control.
