- W4387565134 abstract "In the face of climate change, mosquitoes will experience evolving climates including longer periods of drought. An important physiological response to dry environments is the protection against water loss or dehydration, here defined as desiccation tolerance. Various environmental factors including temperature are known to alter interactions between the mosquito, Aedes aegypti, and the arboviruses it transmits, but little is known about how low humidity impacts arboviral infection. Here, we report that a gene upregulated in response to desiccation is important for controlling midgut infection. We have identified two genetically diverse lines of Ae. aegypti with marked differences in desiccation tolerance. To understand if the genetic basis underlying desiccation tolerance is the same between the contrasting lines, we compared gene expression profiles between desiccant treated and non-desiccant treated individuals in both the desiccation tolerant and susceptible lines by RNAseq. Gene expression analysis demonstrates that different genes are differentially expressed in response to desiccation stress between desiccation tolerant and susceptible lines. The most highly expressed transcript under desiccation stress in the desiccation susceptible line encodes a peritrophin protein, AePer50. Peritrophins plays a crucial role in peritrophic matrix formation after a bloodmeal. Gene silencing of AePer50 by RNAi demonstrates that expression of AePer50 is required for survival of the desiccation susceptible line under desiccation stress, but not for the desiccation tolerant line. Moreover, knock down of AePer50 results in higher infection rates and viral replication rates of ZIKV and higher infection rates of CHIKV. Finally, following a bloodmeal, the desiccation susceptible line develops a thicker peritrophic matrix than the desiccation tolerant line. Together these results provide a functional link between the protection against desiccation and midgut infection which has important implications in predicting how climate change will impact mosquito-borne viruses." @default.
