Zika in Infants and Pregnancy (ZIP) study: results from a prospective international cohort study of prenatal Zika virus infection and adverse fetal and infant outcomes

Published on 07/07/2026 |  Original article (Full-text)  | Lebov Jill Farnell et al. | BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth 2025; 25(1): 903 7 min.

The emergence of Zika virus (ZIKV) in the Americas in 2015 was associated with an increased incidence of congenital microcephaly [1, 2]. Prior to this outbreak, the largest known ZIKV outbreak occurred in French Polynesia in 2013–2014 where researchers observed an association between Guillain-Barré...

Zika Virus: A Review of Biology, Clinical Impacts, and Coinfections.

Published on 07/07/2026 |  PubMed  | Santana Lucas Matheus Barreto et al. | Viruses 2025 Apr; 17(5) 2 min.

The Zika virus (ZIKV) gained prominence as a significant global pathogen after the 2015-2016 outbreaks associated it with an increase in neurological complications in adults and congenital malformations. Different mechanisms have been proposed by which ZIKV may cross the blood-brain barrier and reach...

 Japanese Encephalitis
Japanese encephalitis virus-associated human microglia induce cell death of human microvascular endothelial cells in receptor-independent infection.

Published on 02/06/2026 |  PubMed  | Fellay Isabelle et al. | Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology 2025 ; 15: 1580958 2 min.

The neurotropic virus Japanese encephalitis virus invades the human central nervous system, inducing neuroinflammation and further disruption of the blood-brain barrier. JEV interacts with various cell types of the blood-brain barrier including the endothelial cells. The present work aims to investigate...
