The agreement with Keele University, United Kingdom, aims at promoting collaboration in science, technology, and innovation in areas of mutual interest, especially in Tropical Disease, through the interaction between research community from State of São Paulo and researchers from Keele University, under their respective program frameworks and guidelines.
Dengue is the arboviral disease of highest public health relevance due to its recent expansion in urban areas worldwide. Since vaccines and drug therapies are still not available and mosquito control programs have been insufficient to impair dengue outbreaks, the development of new tools for dengue control is urgently needed. However, this is limited by the poor understanding of the mole…
In the last years, dengue disease become the vector-borne disease of most importance in public health due to the geographical expansion of the four dengue virus (DENV) serotype and its vector, the Aedes aegypti mosquito, that are well established in most of the tropical countries. In Brazil, after dengue resurgence in the beginning of 80s on Roraima State, the numbers of infections are gr…
The elucidation of genetic factors related to A. aegypti vector competence has been facilitated by the dissection of the mosquito's transcriptional responses to DENV, as well as by QTL studies in populations with midgut infection and scape barriers (MIM and MEB). Similar studies in Brazilian A. aegypti populations are limited to the fact that mosquito populations with different levels of …
