How Orthoflaviviruses Hijack Mitochondria to Survive in Mosquitoes

According to a recent review published in the journal npj Viruses, researchers have discovered that mosquito-borne orthoflaviviruses drive distinct cellular damage in human hosts while establishing lifelong, non-lethal infections in mosquito vectors. This divergence stems from how these viruses manipulate host mitochondrial dynamics, offering new avenues for targeted antiviral strategies against pathogens like dengue, Zika, … Read more
