Transcriptional Analysis of Immune-Responsive Genes in the Mosquito Midgut. The relative mRNA levels of the immune-responsive genes from three and seven days after normal (BF) and infectious DENV2 blood-fed (DENV2) mosquito midguts were examined with qRT-PCR analysis. Midguts of mosquitoes fed with non-infectious blood were used as controls. An equal amount of total RNA from each group was used for cDNA synthesis. Ribosomal protein S7 was used for normalization of relative target gene mRNA expression. Values are mean ± S.E. (error bars) of the copy number of each gene. At least three biological cohorts from each time point were used for analysis.
