Research
Malaria transmission in Libreville: results of a one year survey Jean-Romain Mourou, Thierry Coffinet, Fanny Jarjaval, Christelle Cotteaux, Eve Pradines, Lydie Godefroy, Maryvonne Kombila, Frédéric Pagès Malaria Journal 2012, 11:40 (9 February 2012) Clinical studies have shown a decline in the burden of malaria in Libreville, the capital city of Gabon, but the characteristics of transmission are poorly known. It appears that the decrease of transmission seen inperi-urban areas is probably more dependent of the socio-economic level of a quarter than of its location in the city.

Review
Implication of haematophagous arthropod salivary proteins in host-vector interactions Albin Fontaine, Ibrahima Diouf, Nawal Bakkali, Dorothée Missé, Frédéric Pagès, Thierry Fusai, Christophe Rogier, Lionel Almeras Parasites & Vectors 2011, 4:187 (28 September 2011) This review summarises the pharmacological activity and immunogenic properties of salivary proteins characterised in various haematophagous arthropod species and the usefulness of immunogenic salivary molecules to treat allergic reactions to arthropod bites, to improve host protection against vector-borne diseases or to assess host/vector contacts. Image : The role of haematophagous arthropod saliva in counteracting host haemostatic and immune defences.
