Human testicular germ cells, a reservoir for zika virus, lack antiviral response upon zika or poly(i:c) exposure

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Ohiniba Nadè from the Chinese Academy of College, China University of Washington have published the research: Human Testicular Germ Cells, a Reservoir for Zika Virus, Lack Antiviral Response Upon Zika or Poly(I:C) Exposure, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: Frontiers in Immunology | www.frontiersin.org Since IFNb was not induced in TGCs infected by ZIKV and was undetectable in infected testis explants , the authors aimed to determine whether exogenous IFNb could stimulate an antiviral response in testicular germ cells and control ZIKV replication (and hence persistence) in the testis. For this, the . . .
