Blood-Feeding Behavior of Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Infected Culicoides sonorensis (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) (2008)

Kristine E. Bennett, Jessica E. Hopper, Melissa A. Stuart, Mark West, Barbara S. Drolet

To determine whether vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) infection of Culicoides sonorensis Wirth & Jones (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) affects subsequent blood-feeding behavior, midges injected with...

Selection of D2S3, an Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) Strain with High Oral Susceptibility to Dengue 2 Virus and D2MEB, a Strain with a Midgut Barrier to Dengue 2 Escape (2005)

Kristine E. Bennett, Barry J. Beaty

Family-based phenotypic selection was used to breed two genetic strains of Aedes aegypti L. that differ in susceptibility to infection with dengue serotype 2 virus (DEN-2) strain JAM1409. A Dengue 2...

Immunity to Onchocerciasis: Cells from Putatively Immune Individuals Produce Enhanced Levels of Interleukin-5, Gamma Interferon, and Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor in Response to Onchocerca volvulus Larval and Male Worm Antigens

Turaga, Prasad S. D., Tierney, Tracy J., Bennett, Kristine E., McCarthy, Maggie C., Simonek, Scott C., Enyong, Peter A., ...

Antigen-specific interleukin-5 (IL-5), gamma interferon (IFN-γ), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) responses in individuals living in an area of hyperendemicity for...

Differential Cytokine and Antibody Responses to Adult and Larval Stages of Onchocerca volvulus Consistent with the Development of Concomitant Immunity

MacDonald, Angus J., Turaga, Prasad S. D., Harmon-Brown, Carolyn, Tierney, Tracy J., Bennett, Kristine E., McCarthy, Maggie C., ...

The possibility of concomitant immunity and its potential mechanisms in Onchocerca volvulus infection were examined by analyzing cytokine and antibody responses to infective larval (third-stage...

Quantitative Trait Loci That Control Dengue-2 Virus Dissemination in the Mosquito Aedes aegypti

Bennett, Kristine E., Flick, Don, Fleming, Karen H., Jochim, Ryan, Beaty, Barry J., Black, William C.

The mosquito Aedes aegypti is the most important vector of yellow fever and dengue fever flaviviruses. Ae. aegypti eradication campaigns have not been sustainable and there are no effective vaccines...
