This study shows that Zika virus reprograms the glioblastoma tumor microenvironment to be anti-tumoral by inducing type III interferon signaling, which can be mimicked by exogenous treatment.

This study investigates nociceptive changes in cutaneous leishmaniasis using C57BL/6 mice, finding IL-1β contributes to thermal hypersensitivity while structural changes cause mechanical desensitization.

This study shows that Zika virus infection during development reduces callosal area and neuron density, disrupts axon guidance, and impairs corpus callosum formation in mice.

This paper investigates whether saxitoxin from cyanobacteria worsens neural damage caused by Zika virus in Brazil, finding increased cell death and brain abnormalities in experimental models.
