Life Cycle and Transmission Sample Clauses

Life Cycle and Transmission. Humans become infected with worm larvae when bitten by an infected mosquito. Within several hours, the larvae molt and develop a new cuticle, introducing new antigens to the human host. The 4th stage larvae reside in the lymphatic vessels where they develop into adults over 6-9 months. The adult worms live in the lymphatic system of the lower and upper limbs as well as the male genitalia (W. bancrofti). Female and male adult worms mate to produce sheathed microfilariae over the course of 5-10 years [2]. These microfilariae then migrate to the lymph and blood channels where they are then taken up by a mosquito vector during a blood meal (typically at night). Once ingested by a mosquito, the microfilariae shed their sheaths, enter the mosquito’s gut, and then migrate to the thoracic muscles over a 24 hour period. It is here where the microfilariae molt and develop into stage 1 and stage 3 larvae (10-14 days). The stage 3 larvae then travel to the mosquito’s head and proboscis. During the mosquito’s blood meal, the larvae then enter human skin to start the cycle over again. Mosquitoes of the Culex, Anopheles, Mansonia, and Coquillettidia genera are vectors for Wuchereria bancrofti [3], while the vector for Brugia malayi is typically of the Aedes or Mansonia generum [4]. Humans do not typically become infected from one single mosquito bite (as with malaria infection). To become infected, they must be exposed to infected mosquito vectors for an extended period of time and have endured many bites.
