Type I interferons govern Zika virus resistance of human macrophages and microglia

2022-03-11

Abstract excerpt

The role of the human type I interferon (IFN-I) system in restricting Zika virus (ZIKV) is uncertain. Here, genetic and pharmacological ablation of IFN-I signalling enhanced ZIKV replication and cytopathicity in macrophages and microglia, key cells in ZIKV transmission and pathogenesis. Thus, despite the extensive IFN-I countermeasures employed by ZIKV, IFN-I dictates the outcome of infection in macrophages. Thera...
