Researchers at Washington State University have published a new study on West Nile Fever, focusing on the impact of sustained antiviral insulin signaling during West Nile virus infection. The study explores how insulin signaling in mosquitoes can lead to adaptive mutations or escape variants in the infecting virus, potentially influencing future transmission blocking strategies. The research highlights the importance of understanding mosquito immune responses to reduce the transmission of West Nile virus and other flaviviruses to mammalian hosts.
