Histological validation of in-vivo larvicidal efficacy of marine Streptomyces sp. RD06 secondary metabolites against filariasis causing Culex quinquefasciatus and statistical media optimization for larvicidal derivatives production. Acta Trop 2024; 255:107226. [PMID: 38697451 DOI: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2024.107226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2023] [Revised: 04/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024]
Abstract
Mosquito-borne disease pandemics, such as the Zika virus and chikungunya, have escalated cognizance of how critical it is to implement proficient mosquito vector control measures. The prevention of Culicidae is becoming more difficult these days because of the expeditious imminence of synthetic pesticide resistance and the universal expansion of tremendously invasive mosquito vectors. The present study highlights the insecticidal and larvicidal efficacy of the prospective novel actinobacterium derived from the marine Streptomyces sp. RD06 secondary metabolites against Culex quinquefasciatus mosquito. The pupicidal activity of Streptomyces sp. RD06 showed LC50=199.22 ± 11.54 and LC90= 591.84 ± 55.41 against the pupa. The purified bioactive metabolites 1, 2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, diheptyl ester from Streptomyces sp. RD06 exhibited an LC50 value of 154.13 ± 10.50 and an LC90 value of 642.84 ± 74.61 tested against Cx. quinquefasciatus larvae. The Streptomyces sp. RD06 secondary metabolites exhibited 100 % non-hatchability at 62.5 ppm, and 82 % of hatchability was observed at 250 ppm. In addition, media optimization showed that the highest biomass production was attained at a temperature of 41.44 °C, pH 9.23, nitrogen source 11.43 mg/ml, and carbon source 150 mg/ml. Compared to control larvae, the histology and confocal microscopy results showed destruction to the anal gill, lumen content, and epithelial layer residues in the treated larvae. Utilizing an eco-friendly method, these alternative inventive insecticidal derivatives from Streptomyces sp. RD06 eradicates Culex quinquefasciatus. This study highlights the promising potential of these Streptomyces sp. RD06 secondary metabolites to develop affordable and efficacious mosquito larvicides to replace synthetic insecticides in the future.

Abstract
Mosquitoes are the most notorious arthropod vectors of viral and parasitic diseases for which approximately half the world's population, ~4,000,000,000, is at risk. Integrated pest management programs (IPMPs) have achieved some success in mitigating the regional transmission and persistence of these diseases. However, as many vector-borne diseases remain pervasive, it is obvious that IPMP successes have not been absolute in eradicating the threat imposed by mosquitoes. Moreover, the expanding mosquito geographic ranges caused by factors related to climate change and globalization (travel, trade, and migration), and the evolution of resistance to synthetic pesticides, present ongoing challenges to reducing or eliminating the local and global burden of these diseases, especially in economically and medically disadvantaged societies. Abatement strategies include the control of vector populations with synthetic pesticides and eco-friendly technologies. These "green" technologies include SIT, IIT, RIDL, CRISPR/Cas9 gene drive, and biological control that specifically targets the aquatic larval stages of mosquitoes. Regarding the latter, the most effective continues to be the widespread use of Lysinibacillus sphaericus (Ls) and Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis (Bti). Here, we present a review of the health issues elicited by vector mosquitoes, control strategies, and lastly, focus on the biology of Ls and Bti, with an emphasis on the latter, to which no resistance has been observed in the field.

Abstract
The mosquito Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae) is a vector species of the causal agents of Dengue, yellow fever, and Zika among other diseases pathogens. The species originated in Southeast Asia and has spread widely and rapidly in the last century. The species has been reported in localities from the Gulf of Guinea since the early 2000s, but systematic sampling has been scant. We sampled Ae. albopictus twice, in 2013 and 2023 across the altitudinal gradient in São Tomé and found that the species was present in all sampled years at altitudes up to 680 m. We also found some evidence of increases in proportional representation compared to Ae. aegypti over time. We report the presence of the species in Príncipe for the first time, suggesting that the range of Ae. albopictus is larger than previously thought. Finally, we use bioclimatic niche modeling to infer the potential range of Ae. albopictus and infer that the species has the potential to spread across a large portion of São Tomé and Príncipe. Our results suggest that Ae. albopictus has established itself as a resident species of the islands of the Gulf of Guinea and should be incorporated into the list of potential vectors that need to be surveyed and controlled.

Abstract
Members of the Flaviviridae family, encompassing the Flavivirus and Hepacivirus genera, are implicated in a spectrum of severe human pathologies. These diseases span a diverse spectrum, including hepatitis, vascular shock syndrome, encephalitis, acute flaccid paralysis, and adverse fetal outcomes, such as congenital heart defects and increased mortality rates. Notably, infections by Flaviviridae viruses have been associated with substantial cardiovascular compromise, yet the exploration into the attendant cardiovascular sequelae and underlying mechanisms remains relatively underexplored. This review aims to explore the epidemiology of Flaviviridae virus infections and synthesize their cardiovascular morbidities. Leveraging current research trajectories and our investigative contributions, we aspire to construct a cogent theoretical framework elucidating the pathogenesis of Flaviviridae-induced cardiovascular injury and illuminate prospective therapeutic avenues.

Abstract
Dengue virus serotype 2 (DENV-2) is responsible for dengue epidemics on a global scale and is associated with severe cases of the disease. This study conducted a phylogenetic investigation of DENV-2 isolates from 2017 to 2021 originating from the northern states of Brazil. A total of 32 samples from DENV-2 isolates were analyzed, including 12 from Acre, 19 from Roraima, and one from Tocantins. Only one lineage of the Asian-American genotype and one lineage of the cosmopolitan genotype were observed: Lineage 1, Asian-American genotype (connection to Puerto Rico); Lineage 5, cosmopolitan genotype (connection to Peru). Our results provide important data regarding the study of DENV genotypes and lineage distribution and open up possibilities for probable introduction and dissemination routes.
