Investigating the lipid profile of Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes across developmental life stages.

ABSTRACT: Holometabolous insects undergo a distinct transition in their development, tightly correlated with shifting feeding patterns from larval stages and some adult phases to non-feeding phases as pupae and during other adult phases. Furthermore, the intricate life cycle of mosquitoes involves a sequence of developmental stages influenced by aquatic and terrestrial factors, demanding precise energy resource orchestration. Lipids serve multifaceted roles, encompassing energy storage, membrane structure, and participation in signal transduction and molecular recognition processes. A significant gap in the current research landscape is the need for a comprehensive study exploring the lipid repertoire throughout the developmental stages of Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes. We undertook an analysis of
