Abstract

The congenital Zika syndrome is a set of birth disabilities caused by Zika virus infection during gestation. However, not all infected mothers transmit the virus to their babies. Does any environmental factor increase susceptibility? Here we explore whether protein deficiency in the maternal diet enhances the detrimental effects of ZIKV infection in early development. - submission by Jimena Barbeito-Andrés, Patricia Pestana Garcez
