A multidisciplinary team of physicians published a case study today in The New England Journal of Medicine, describing the nation's first locally-transmitted case of Zika.

A new study has, for the first time, identified seven key proteins in the virus that may be the culprits behind Zika's damage.

Implications also for understanding Zika virus-caused microencephaly.

The new model predicts a potential seasonal transmission risk for Zika virus during the summer. 

In a new study, Vanderbilt pharmacologist Jerod Denton, Ph.D., Ohio State entomologist Peter Piermarini, Ph.D., and colleagues report an experimental molecule that inhibits kidney function in mosquitoes and thus might provide a new way to control...

A team of researchers have discovered the mechanism by which C10, a human antibody previously identified to react with the Dengue virus, prevents Zika infection.

 The virus could be transmitted via the environment if an individual is pricked with an infected needle or has an open cut and comes in contact with the live virus. 

The antibody was able to "inhibit infection by strains from both Africa and America in cell culture and in animals, including during pregnancy."
