MicroRNAs and other small RNAs in Aedes aegypti saliva and salivary glands following chikungunya virus infection

Abstract Mosquito saliva facilitates blood feeding through the anti-haemostatic, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties of its proteins. However, the potential contribution of non-coding RNAs to host manipulation is still poorly understood. We analysed small RNAs from Aedes aegypti saliva...
