  • Title: Trypanosoma brucei 29-13 strain is inducible in but not permissive for the tsetse fly vector.
    Author: Herder S, Votýpka J, Jirků M, Rádrová J, Janzen CJ, Lukes J.
    Journal: Exp Parasitol; 2007 Sep; 117(1):111-4. PubMed ID: 17603043.
    Abstract:
    Using green fluorescent protein as a reporter, we have shown that the strain 29-13 of Trypanosoma brucei, widely used for inducible down-regulation of mRNA, is inducible in, but not permissive for the tsetse flies Glossina palpalis gambiensis and Glossina morsitans morsitans. Within two weeks post-infection, 42% males and females of teneral and non-teneral tsetse flies harboured intestinal infections, yet not a single infection progressed into the salivary glands.
