ResumoComparisons were made of in vivo labeled polypeptides from Aedes aegypti strains refractory to either Brugia malayi or Dirofilaria immitis. There does not seem to be a generalized anti-parasite" polypeptide response that mosquitoes refractory to filarial worm infection produce following bloodfeeding. Instead, it seems that any response produced by these mosquitoes is localized to the tissue in which the filarial parasite develops."
