Transovarial transmission of dengue virus is important phenomenon causes dengue virus survival during inter-epidemic period. The purpose of this study was to analyze effect of egg storage duration on DEN-3 virus Transovarial Infection Rate (TIR) in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. This was laboratory research with experimental design. Ae. aegypti was infected with the DEN-3 virus per-orally and allowed to undergo its gonotrophic cycle. Eggs stored at room temperature (25±3oC) and relative humidity (70±5%)  for 0, 1, 2 and 3 months. Hatched eggs then colonized until become adult mosquito. Sample was taken from colonies at 4, 8, 16 days old. Headsquash of mosquitoes was preparedwith Streptavidin Biotin Peroxidase Complex (SBPC) immunocytochemical method using DSSE 10 monoclonal antibody and detected the presence virus antigen. Transovarial infection rate was determined by counting percentage of positive samples. Data were analyzed by linear regression test. Result of this study showed that in 4, 8, 16 samples showed lowest TIR on 0 month storage (33,33%, 33,33%; 40,00%) and highest TIR observed on 2 month storage (76,67%; 66,67%, 76,67%). Statistical test showed significantly different result (p = 0,013) with α = 0,05 and R2 = 0,476. The duration of egg storage effect on DEN-3 virus TIR in Ae. aegypti mosquito with 47.6% contribution.

Detection of viruses in human sera particularly in endemic areas is cumbersome and laborious. Therefore, an alternative approach, Immuno-fluorescence assay (IFA) was performed to determine dengue virus (DENV) positivity in mosquitoes. A total of 1055 adult Aedes aegypti female mosquitoes were tested for IFA test against DENV. Minimum infection rate (MIR) for DENV was found higher during August to November 2016 ranging from 10.75 to 20.83. The average yearly MIR was about 6.64. Higher MIR for Ae. aegypti was found in Sarfabad, Noida (12.71) and Khoda Colony, Ghaziabad (11.90). Minimum MIR (4.67) was observed in Sanjay colony (Faridabad). The main contribution of this study resides in the development of a more suitable monitoring system for early detection of viral circulation and to prioritize early intervention in the non-transmission season.

Abstract Dengue virus infection, transmitted via mosquito bites, poses a substantial risk to global public health. Studies suggest that the mosquito’s microbial community can profoundly influence vector-borne pathogen transmissions, including dengue virus. Ascogregarina culicis (Ross) of the phylum Apicomplexa is among the most common parasites of Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus), the principal vector of dengue. Despite a high prevalence worldwide, including in the areas where dengue is endemic, the impact of A. culicis on Ae. aegypti vector competence for dengue virus is unknown. This study aimed to investigate the effects of A. culicis infection on mosquito size and fitness, as measured by wing length, and the susceptibility to dengue virus infection in Ae. aegypti. Our results showed that there was no statistically significant difference in wing lengths between Ae. aegypti infected and not infected with A. culicis. Furthermore, A. culicis infection did not significantly affect dengue virus infection or disseminated infection rate. However, there was a significant association between shorter wings and higher dengue virus infection rate, whereby a 0.1-mm increase in wing length decreased the odds of the mosquito being infected by 32%. Thus, based on our result, A. culicis infection does not influence the body size and dengue virus infection in Ae. aegypti. This study helps to shed light on a common but neglected eukaryotic mosquito parasite.

DBD is an infectious disease by the Dengue virus, which is transmitted through the bite of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. This disease's characteristics include sudden high fever accompanied by bleeding manifestations and the tendency to cause shock that can cause death. Until now, there is no cure for dengue fever or a vaccine. So the only way to prevent this disease is to break the chain of transmission. The main factor of dengue fever in Indonesia is the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Another way to avoid dengue fever is the correct 3M plus method, namely 1. Close, cover all places that can hold water, both inside and outside the house. 2. Drain, drain water reservoirs such as bathtubs, aquariums, and flower vases two times a week. The mosquito metamorphosis cycle, from egg to adult mosquito, lasts 8-10 days. 3. Bury. Bury all objects that can hold water, such as used cans or plastic containers. However, in the 3M movement, which has been renewed to 3M plus, this third M is no longer recommended because it can cause soil pollution

Dengue fever is the most prevalent arthropod-transmitted viral disease worldwide, with endemic transmission restricted to tropical and subtropical regions of different temperature profiles. Temperature is epidemiologically relevant because it affects dengue infection rates in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, the major vector of the dengue virus (DENV). Aedes aegypti populations are also known to vary in competence for different DENV genotypes. We assessed the effects of mosquito and virus genotype on DENV infection in the context of temperature by challenging Ae. aegypti from two locations in Vietnam, which differ in temperature regimes, with two isolates of DENV-2 collected from the same two localities, followed by incubation at 25, 27 or 32°C for 10 days. Genotyping of the mosquito populations and virus isolates confirmed that each group was genetically distinct. Extrinsic incubation temperature (EIT) and DENV-2 genotype had a direct effect on the infection rate, consistent with previous studies. However, our results show that the EIT impacts the infection rate differently in each mosquito population, indicating a genotype by environment interaction. These results suggest that the magnitude of DENV epidemics may not only depend on the virus and mosquito genotypes present, but also on how they interact with local temperature. This information should be considered when estimating vector competence of local and introduced mosquito populations during disease risk evaluation.

Efforts to determine the mosquito genes that affect dengue virus replication have identified a number of candidates that positively or negatively modify amplification in the invertebrate host. We used deep sequencing to compare the differential transcript abundances in Aedes aegypti 14 days post dengue infection to those of uninfected A. aegypti. The gene lethal(2)-essential-for-life [l(2)efl], which encodes a member of the heat shock 20 protein (HSP20) family, was upregulated following dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2) infection in vivo. The transcripts of this gene did not exhibit differential accumulation in mosquitoes exposed to insecticides or pollutants. The induction and overexpression of l(2)efl gene products using poly(I:C) resulted in decreased DENV-2 replication in the cell line. In contrast, the RNAi-mediated suppression of l(2)efl gene products resulted in enhanced DENV-2 replication, but this enhancement occurred only if multiple l(2)efl genes were suppressed. l(2)efl homologs induce the phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (eIF2α) in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, and we confirmed this finding in the cell line. However, the mechanism by which l(2)efl phosphorylates eIF2α remains unclear. We conclude that l(2)efl encodes a potential anti-dengue protein in the vector mosquito.
