Journal of Mosquito Research 2024, Vol.14, No.2, 61-66 http://emtoscipublisher.com/index.php/jmr 66 4 Conclusion Through the research of Giraldo and colleagues, we now have a deeper understanding of the workings of the Anopheles gambiae olfactory system, especially in how they respond to human odors. Utilizing a combination of CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology and calcium imaging techniques, the study not only successfully tracked the neurophysiological response of mosquitoes to specific odor molecules but also revealed specific response patterns of olfactory sensory neurons. This work provides us with powerful tools to study mosquito olfactory behavior more precisely, laying a solid foundation for developing new mosquito repellent strategies and malaria prevention measures. These findings are not only scientifically groundbreaking but also have significant implications for public health practice, offering new strategies and hope for future malaria control and elimination. In summary, the research by Giraldo and others greatly enriches our understanding of the olfactory mechanisms of malaria mosquitoes and opens up new avenues for formulating more effective mosquito management and malaria control strategies. 5 Access the Full Text Giraldo, Diego et al.
