Zika viruses of both African and Asian lineages cause fetal harm in a vertical transmission model

2018-08-07

Abstract excerpt

Congenital Zika virus (ZIKV) infection was first linked to birth defects during the American outbreak 1–3 . It has been proposed that mutations unique to the Asian/American-genotype explain, at least in part, the ability of Asian/American ZIKV to cause congenital Zika syndrome (CZS) 4,5 . Recent studies identified mutations in ZIKV infecting humans that arose coincident with the outbreak in French Polynesia and...
