The widespread expansion of dengue is alarming. The challenges of vector control strategies warrants the implementation of alternative assessments to curb its invasion. This review summarizes the contemporary knowledge on the credible use of human antibody response towards mosquito salivary protein as predictive markers for dengue infection. The literature was sourced from electronic databases such as Scopus, PubMed, Springer Link, Wiley Online Library and Science Direct. Keywords such as “salivary proteins”, “biomarker”, “dengue” “antibody response” were utilised. The evaluation of antibody reaction towards salivary peptides in mosquitoes is a practical immuno-epidemiological method that could be further explored to heighten the diagnostic monitoring of dengue transmission.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
