Molecular Mimicry between Zika virus and central nervous system inflammatory demyelinating disorders: the role of NS5 Zika virus epitope and PLP autoantigens

2020-02-04

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Evidences indicate a strong link between Zika virus (ZikV) and neurological complications. Acute myelitis, optic neuritis, polyneuropathy and encephalomyelitis that mimic inflammatory idiopathic demyelination disorders (IIDD) after ZikV infection have been reported in Brazil. In that context, the present study aims to investigate the possible occurrence of molecular mimicry...
