Inhibition of innate immune response ameliorates Zika virus-induced neurogenesis deficit in human neural stem cells.

Global Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreaks and their strong link to microcephaly have raised major public health concerns. ZIKV has been reported to affect the innate immune responses in neural stem/progenitor cells (NS/PCs). However, it is unclear how these immune factors affect neurogenesis. In this study...
