Absence of SARS-CoV-2 in Wildlife of Northeastern Minnesota and Isle Royale National Park

D. Castaneda, E. J. Isaac, T. Kautz, M. C. Romanski, S. A. Moore, M. Aliota

The paper tests 120 wildlife nasal samples for SARS-CoV-2 RNA and finds no positive results, highlighting the need for continued surveillance of zoonotic transmission in the Upper Midwest.

Gain without pain: Adaptation and increased virulence of Zika virus in vertebrate host without fitness cost in mosquito vector

A. S. Jaeger, J. Marano, K. Riemersma, D. Castaneda, E. Pritchard, J. Pritchard, E. K. Bohm, J. J. Bacenzas, S. L. O'Connor, J. Weger-Lucarelli, T. C. Friedrich, M. Aliota

This study shows that ZIKV adapts to vertebrate hosts with increased virulence without reducing its ability to transmit via mosquitoes.

Zika virus infection of pregnant Ifnar1-/- mice triggers strain-specific differences in fetal outcomes

E. K. Bohm, J. T. Vangorder-Braid, A. S. Jaeger, R. V. Moriarty, J. J. Baczenas, N. C. Bennett, S. L. O'Connor, M. K. Fritsch, N. A. Fuhler, K. K. Noguchi, M. Aliota

This study compares fetal outcomes in pregnant Ifnar1-/- mice infected with different ZIKV strains, finding strain-specific differences in fetal demise rates.

Early embryonic loss following intravaginal Zika virus challenge in rhesus macaques

C. M. Newman, A. F. Tarantal, M. L. Martinez, H. A. Simmons, T. K. Morgan, X. Zeng, J. R. Rosinski, M. I. Bliss, E. K. Bohm, D. M. Dudley, M. Aliota, T. Friedrich, C. J. Miller, D. O'Connor

This study infects rhesus macaques intravaginally with Zika virus and finds that two of three pregnancies resulted in early embryonic loss with viral RNA detected at the maternal-fetal interface.

African-lineage Zika virus replication dynamics and maternal-fetal interface infection in pregnant rhesus macaques

C. M. Crooks, A. M. Weiler, S. L. Rybarczyk, M. I. Bliss, A. S. Jaeger, M. E. Murphy, H. A. Simmons, A. Mejia, M. K. Fritsch, J. M. Hayes, J. C. Eickhoff, A. M. Mitzey, E. Razo, K. Braun, E. A. Brown, , T. C. Friedrich

This study infects pregnant rhesus macaques with African- and Asian-lineage Zika virus to compare their pathogenesis, finding similar replication kinetics but higher viral burden in maternal-fetal interface tissues with African-lineage isolates.

Spondweni virus causes fetal harm in a mouse model of vertical transmission and is transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes

A. S. Jaeger, A. M. Weiler, R. V. Moriarty, S. L. Rybarczyk, S. L. O'Connor, D. O'Connor, D. Seeling, M. Fritsch, T. C. Friedrich, M. Aliota

This study shows Spondweni virus causes fetal harm in mice and is transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, similar to Zika virus.

Zika viruses of both African and Asian lineages cause fetal harm in a vertical transmission model

A. Jaeger, R. Murrieta, L. Goren, C. Crooks, R. Moriarty, A. Weiler, S. Rybarczyk, M. Semler, C. Huffman, A. Mejia, H. Simmons, M. Fritsch, J. Osorio, S. O'Connor, G. Ebel, , M. Aliota

This study shows African ZIKV can cause fetal harm in a mouse model, challenging the idea that specific mutations are required for congenital Zika syndrome.

Infection via mosquito bite alters Zika virus replication kinetics in rhesus macaques

D. Dudley, C. Newman, J. Lalli, L. Stewart, M. Koening, A. Weiler, M. Semler, G. Barry, K. Zarbock, M. Mohns, M. Breitbach, N. Schultz-Darken, E. Peterson, W. Newton, E. Mohr, , M. Aliota

This study compares ZIKV replication kinetics and tissue distribution in rhesus macaques infected via mosquito bite versus subcutaneous inoculation, finding delayed viral peak and restricted tissue distribution in mosquito-infected animals.
