Keywords extracellular vesicles lipids dengue West Nile Zika Orthoflavivirus transmission bite unfolded protein response ERAD Introduction Several flaviviruses that cumulatively infect half a billion people annually, causing more than 120,000 fatalities and $9 billion in economic loss, are transmitted within mosquito saliva during biting.1 Nearly the entire human population is threatened by dengue virus (DENV), Zika virus (ZIKV), and West Nile virus (WNV), the most prevalent flaviviruses, due...

Abstract Mosquito saliva plays a determining role in flavivirus transmission. Here, we discover and elucidate how salivary lipids enhance transmission. Building upon our discovery of salivary extracellular vesicles (EV), we determined that lipids within mosquito EVs, and neither within human EVs nor virions, enhance infection for flaviviruses in primary cell types relevant for transmission.
