Paraquat-Mediated Oxidative Stress in <em>Anopheles gambiae</em> Mosquitoes Is Regulated by An Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Stress Response

Paraquat-Mediated Oxidative Stress in <em>Anopheles gambiae</em> Mosquitoes Is Regulated by An Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Stress Response

Paraquat is a potent superoxide (O<sub>2</sub><sup>−</sup>)-inducing agent that is capable of inducing an oxidative imbalance in the mosquito midgut. This oxidative imbalance can super-stress the malaria parasite, leading to arrested development in the mosquito midgut and red...
