From: Plasmodium infection alters Anopheles gambiae detoxification gene expression
Differential expression of detoxification genes in the midgut and fat body at day 1 and day 11 post feeding with a P. berghei infected or an uninfected blood meal. The most dramatic change occurs in the midgut during sporozoite invasion (day 1 post blood feed) with 33 loci being down-regulated. While genes were predominantly down-regulated in the midgut the majority of differentially expressed genes in the fat body are up-regulated during midgut infection and sporozoite release. Numbers in brackets indicate the number of loci that were not differentially expressed at the significance cut-off level of alpha = 0.001.
