Spondweni virus causes fetal harm in Ifnar1(-/-) mice and is transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes 2020-05-24 .txt text/plain 3948 247 57 Vector competence experiments showed that Ae. aegypti could transmit SPONV when 70 exposed to bloodmeal titers that approximate physiological titers, while Cx. quinquefasciatus nonpregnant, mixed sex 6-to 11-week-old mice lacking type I interferon signaling (Ifnar1 -/-) Ar94 (this is the only strain used in these studies, so it will be referred to hereafter as 86 SPONV); or 10 2 PFU of the highly pathogenic African-lineage ZIKV strain DAK AR 41524 87 (ZIKV-DAK) (Jaeger et al., 2019) . Despite significantly higher maternal 141 viremia observed at 4 dpi with ZIKV-DAK-infected dams, the fact that resorption rates did 142 not significantly differ between the two groups indicates that both ZIKV-DAK and SPONV 143 have a propensity to harm the developing fetus that is independent of the amount of 144 replication in maternal blood. In contrast, ZIKV-DAK-and SPONV-inoculated dams displayed 221 varying degrees of placental pathology with severe effects predominantly observed in the 222 the labyrinth zone, including vascular injury involving maternal and/or fetal vascular spaces, 223 infarction (obstructed blood flow), necrosis, apoptosis, and hemorrhage (Fig. 4) . ./cache/cord-284646-fhruiw23.txt ./txt/cord-284646-fhruiw23.txt
