Experimental Zika Virus Infection in the Pregnant Common Marmoset Induces Spontaneous Fetal Loss and Neurodevelopmental Abnormalities. [PDF]

, 2018
During its most recent outbreak across the Americas, Zika virus (ZIKV) was surprisingly shown to cause fetal loss and congenital malformations in acutely and chronically infected pregnant women.

Centrosome defects cause microcephaly by activating the 53BP1‐USP28‐TP53 mitotic surveillance pathway

EMBO Journal, 2020
Mutations in centrosome genes deplete neural progenitor cells (NPCs) during brain development, causing microcephaly. While NPC attrition is linked to TP53‐mediated cell death in several microcephaly models, how TP53 is activated remains unclear.

Causes of microcephaly in human—theoretical considerations

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
As is evident from the theme of the Research Topic “Small Size, Big Problem: Understanding the Molecular Orchestra of Brain Development from Microcephaly,” the pathomechanisms leading to mirocephaly in human are at best partially understood. As molecular

A new insight into the definition of microcephaly in Zika congenital syndrome era

Cadernos de Saúde Pública, 2021
: This study aimed to compare the anthropometric measurements and body proportionalities of neonates born before the Zika virus epidemic with those born during this period. We compared 958 neonates born during the pre-Zika epidemic with 264 neonates born
