Aquaporins Are Critical for Provision of Water during Lactation and Intrauterine Progeny Hydration to Maintain Tsetse Fly Reproductive Success

Benoit, Joshua B; Hansen, Immo A; Attardo, Geoffrey M; Michalková, Veronika; Mireji, Paul O; Bargul, Joel L; Drake, Lisa L; Masiga, Daniel K; Aksoy, Serap (2014)

Tsetse flies undergo drastic fluctuations in their water content throughout their adult life history due to events such as blood feeding, dehydration and lactation, an essential feature of the viviparous reproductive biology ...
Odorant and Gustatory Receptors in the Tsetse Fly Glossina morsitans morsitans

Obiero, George FO; Mireji, Paul O; Nyanjom, Steven RG; Christoffels, Alan; Robertson, Hugh M; Masiga, Daniel K (2014)

Tsetse flies use olfactory and gustatory responses, through odorant and gustatory receptors (ORs and GRs), to interact with their environment. Glossina morsitans morsitans genome ORs and GRs were annotated using homologs ...
RESEARCH Open Access High-resolution melting analysis reveals low Plasmodium parasitaemia infections among microscopically negative febrile patients in western Kenya

Kipanga, Purity N; Omondi, David; Mireji, Paul O; Sawa, Patrick; Masiga, Daniel K; Villinger, Jandouwe (2014)

Background: Microscopy and rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are common tools for diagnosing malaria, but are deficient in detecting low Plasmodium parasitaemia. A novel molecular diagnostic tool (nPCR-HRM) that combines the ...
RESEARCH Open Access Sex-specific induction of CYP6 cytochrome P450 genes in cadmium and lead tolerant Anopheles gambiae

Musasia, Fauzia K; Isaac, Alfred O; Masiga, Daniel K; Omedo, Irene A; Ochieng, Richard; Mireji, Paul O; Mwakubambanya, Ramadhan (2013)

Background: Anopheles gambiae, one of the main Afro-tropical mosquito vector of malaria, has adapted to heavy metals in its natural habitat, and developed resistance to most conventional insecticides. Investigations ...
