The project investigates the biological factors in rat fleas that influence their ability to transmit pathogens, particularly Yersinia pestis, the cause of bubonic plague. By studying different flea strains, it aims to identify key genetic, microbial, and immune components that affect flea physiology and disease transm…
Vector-borne diseases are caused by pathogens transmitted by hematophagous arthropods (vectors) and affect millions of people worldwide.
The rat flea, Xenopsylla cheopis, is a major vector for several pathogens, including Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of bubonic plague.
Despite periodic outbreaks of this and other flea-borne diseases, research on flea biology remains neglected.
Understanding the biological processes underlying flea physiology and their ability to transmit human pathogens…
