Impact of climate and mosquito vector abundance on sylvatic arbovirus circulation dynamics in Senegal
(2015)Sylvatic arboviruses have been isolated in Senegal over the last 50 years. The ecological drivers of the pattern and frequency of virus infection in these species are largely unknown. We used time series analysis and ... -
Probable Non–Vector-borne Transmission of Zika Virus, Colorado, USA
(2014)Zika virus (ZIKV), a mosquito-transmitted flavivirus, has been isolated from sentinel monkeys, mosquitoes, and sick persons in Africa and Southeast Asia (1,2). Serologic surveys indicate that ZIKV infections can be relatively ... -
Zika Research Projects List: The crystal structure of Zika virus helicase: basis for antiviral drug design
(2016-06)The genus of Flavivirus contains important human pathogens, including dengue (DENV), yellow fever (YFV), West Nile (WNV), Japanese encephalitis (JEV), and tick-borne encephalitis (TBEV) viruses, which cause a number of ... -
Zika Research Projects List: Vertical transmission of Zika virus targeting the radial glial cells affects cortex development of offspring mice
(2016-06)The recent Zika virus (ZIKV) epidemic in Latin America coincided with a marked increase in microcephaly in newborns. However, the causal link between maternal ZIKV infection and malformation of the fetal brain has not been ... -
Zika Virus Targets Human STAT2 to Inhibit Type I Interferon Signaling
(2016-06)The ongoing epidemic of Zika virus (ZIKV) illustrates the importance of flaviviruses as emerging human pathogens. All vector-borne flaviviruses studied thus far have to overcome type I interferon (IFN) to replicate and ... -
