Infection of the maternal-fetal interface and vertical transmission following low-dose inoculation of pregnant rhesus macaques ( <i>Macaca mulatta</i> ) with an African-lineage Zika virus

2022-05-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Congenital Zika virus (ZIKV) infection can result in birth defects, including malformations in the fetal brain and visual system. There are two distinct genetic lineages of ZIKV: African and Asian. Asian lineage ZIKVs have been associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes in humans; however, recent evidence from experimental models suggests that African-lineage viruses can also be vertically tra...
