Description
Preliminary data of ZIKV infection in brain organoids. We perform immunostaining to characterise organoids grown in culture for 5 weeks. We identified neurons (MAP2) and astrocytes (GFAP). We tested the cytopathic effect of ZIKV in this 3D-system after infection with 1.000.000 infectious particles. We took pictures every 3 days post-infection by optic microscope and collected the supernatant for the retrotitration through plaque forming assay to check viral replication.
