In this study, we have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) released from the activated microglia upon Japanese Encephalitis virus (JEV) infection may exacerbate CNS damage. We have provided evidence that let-7a and let-7b (let-7a/b secrete through the vesicles from microglial cells in response to JEV infection and induces caspase activation in the primary cortical neurons that are […]

They have hair like structure called sensillum that contain taste neurons (green- leaf like shape) present on the fly mouth and […]
