Olfactory system development in the dengue vector mosquito Aedes aegypti
A frontal view of a single hemisphere of the developing Aedes aegypti fourth instar larval brain is shown. The antennal sensory neurons (red), which have been filled with the dextran dye D7162, innervate the antennal lobe (area circled by yellow dots). The antennal lobe is labeled with mAb nc82 staining (blue), a marker for the synaptic neuropil. Development of these structures was disrupted through chitosan/siRNA nanoparticle targeting of semaphorin-1a. See Mysore et al.
