In recent decades, mosquito-borne illnesses have emerged as a major health burden in many tropical regions. These diseases, such as malaria, dengue fever, chikungunya, yellow fever, Zika virus infection, Rift Valley fever, Japanese encephalitis, and West Nile virus infection, are transmitted through the bite of infected mosquitoes. These pathogens have been shown to interfere with the host's immune system through adaptive and innate immune mechanisms, as well as the human circulatory system. Crucial immune checkpoints such as antigen presentation, T cell activation, differentiation, and proinflammatory response play a vital role in the host cell's response to pathogenic infection. Furthermore, these immune evasions have the potential to stimulate the human immune system, resulting in other associated non-communicable diseases. This review aims to advance our understanding of mosquito-borne diseases and the immune evasion mechanisms by associated pathogens. Moreover, it highlights the adverse outcomes of mosquito-borne disease.
近几十年来,蚊媒疾病已成为许多热带地区的主要健康负担。这些疾病,如疟疾、登革热、基孔肯雅热、黄热病、寨卡病毒感染、裂谷热、日本脑炎和西尼罗河病毒感染,是通过受感染蚊子的叮咬传播的。这些病原体已被证明通过适应性和先天性免疫机制以及人体循环系统干扰宿主的免疫系统。关键的免疫检查点,如抗原呈递、T细胞活化、分化和促炎反应,在宿主细胞对病原体感染的反应中起着至关重要的作用。此外,这些免疫逃逸有可能刺激人类免疫系统,导致其他相关的非传染性疾病。本综述旨在增进我们对蚊媒疾病以及相关病原体免疫逃逸机制的理解。此外,它还强调了蚊媒疾病的不良后果。
