Infectivity of Immature Neurons to Zika Virus: A Link to Congenital Zika Syndrome
Background: Epidemiological data strongly suggest that microcephaly cases in Brazil are associated with the ongoing epidemic of Zika virus (ZIKV). In order to further solidify the possible link, we investigated the infectivity of ZIKV using various neuroblastoma (NB) cell lines. Methods: Six undiffe...
