| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, is regarded as the major vector of dengue fever in various parts of the world. The purpose of this study was to investigate the molecular basis of the efficient transmission of dengue virus by Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. We tried to develop a novel expression screening method for identifying cell surface receptors for dengue virus binding and entry, and also investigated host and viral factors that affect dengue virus susceptibility of Aedes albopictus cells.
