Abstract
We have discovered new chemical compounds that are characterized as Kir channel inhibitors of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. This is important as the Ae. aegypti mosquito is the primary vector for Zika virus (ZIKV), Dengue virus (DENV) and chikungunya virus (CHIKV). Traditional mosquitocides are plagued with significant resistance and developing new compounds with novel mechanisms of action are vitally important. Lastly, we show that our compounds are potent larvicides against pyrethroid-susceptible and pyrethroid-resistant strains.
