1 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Effects of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection on placental development during pregnancy are unclear. METHODS: Full-term placentas from three women, each infected with ZIKV during specific pregnancy trimesters, were harvested for anatomic, immunologic and transcriptomic analysis. RESULTS: In this study, each woman exhibited a unique immune response with raised IL-1RA, IP-10, EGF and RANTES expression and...
