The midgut epithelium of mosquitoes adjusts cell proliferation and endoreplication to respond to physiological challenges

Abstract Background Hematophagous mosquitoes transmit many pathogens that cause human diseases. Pathogen acquisition and transmission occur when female mosquitoes blood feed to acquire nutrients for reproduction. The midgut epithelium of mosquitoes serves as the point of entry for transmissible viru...
