Overexpression of Activated AMPK in the <i>Anopheles stephensi</i> Midgut Impacts Mosquito Metabolism, Reproduction and <i>Plasmodium</i> Resistance
Mitochondrial integrity and homeostasis in the midgut are key factors controlling mosquito fitness and anti-pathogen resistance. Targeting genes that regulate mitochondrial dynamics represents a potential strategy for limiting mosquito-borne diseases. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key cel...
