Zika virus induces mitotic catastrophe in human neural progenitors by triggering unscheduled mitotic entry in the presence of DNA damage while functionally depleting nuclear PNKP

2021-08-28

Abstract excerpt

Vertical transmission of Zika virus (ZIKV) leads with high frequency to congenital ZIKV syndrome (CZS), whose worst outcome is microcephaly. However, the mechanisms of congenital ZIKV neurodevelopmental pathologies, including direct cytotoxicity to neural progenitor cells (NPC), placental insufficiency, and immune responses, remain incompletely understood. At the cellular level, microcephaly typically results from...
