Experimental Zika Virus Infection in a New World Monkey Model Reproduces Key Features of the Human Disease

2017-01-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Human infections by Zika virus (ZIKV), a mosquito-borne flavivirus, are associated with a current widespread outbreak in the Americas, and have been associated with neurological complications and adverse fetal outcomes such as microcephaly in pregnant women. A suitable non-human primate model is urgently needed. To evaluate ZIKV infectivity, pathogenesis, and persistence, we inoculated 4 marmose...
