Vitamin D Reprograms Non-Coding RNA Networks to Block Zika Virus in Human Macrophages

2025-12-19

Abstract excerpt

Zika virus (ZIKV), a mosquito-borne flavivirus, is associated with congenital malformations and neuroinflammatory disorders, highlighting the need to identify host factors that shape infection outcomes. Macrophages, key targets and reservoirs of ZIKV, orchestrate both antiviral and inflammatory responses. Vitamin D (VitD) has emerged as a potent immunomodulator that enhances macrophage antimicrobial activity and r...
