Though ZIKV is primarily transmitted by mosquitos, cases of sexual transmission and prolonged viral RNA presence in semen have been reported. In this observational study, we report the mucosal responses to sub-cutaneous and mucosal ZIKV exposure in cynomolgus macaques during acute and late chronic infection. Subcutaneous challenge induced a decrease in the growth factor VEGF in colorectal and cervicovaginal tissues 100 days post-challenge, in contrast to the observed increase in these tissues following vaginal infection. This different pattern was not observed in the uterus, where VEGF was upregulated independently of the challenge route. Vaginal challenge induced a pro-inflammatory profile in all mucosal tissues during late chronic infection. Similar responses were already observed during acute infection in a vaginal tissue explant model of ex vivo challenge. Non-productive and productive infection 100 days post-in vivo vaginal challenge induced distinct proteomic profiles which were characterized by further VEGF increase and IL-10 decrease in non-infected animals. Ex vivo challenge of mucosal explants revealed tissue-specific modulation of cytokine levels during the acute phase of infection. Mucosal cytokine profiles could represent biosignatures of persistent ZIKV infection.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/pathogens11091033","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,13]],"date-time":"2022-09-13T04:05:41Z","timestamp":1663041941000},"page":"1033","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Mucosal Responses to Zika Virus Infection in Cynomolgus Macaques"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Neil","family":"Berry","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Disease Diagnostics, National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC), Potters Bar EN6 3QC, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Monja","family":"Stein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Imperial College London, London W2 1PG, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Deborah","family":"Ferguson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Disease Diagnostics, National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC), Potters Bar EN6 3QC, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0734-2129","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Claire","family":"Ham","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Disease Diagnostics, National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC), Potters Bar EN6 3QC, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jo","family":"Hall","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Disease Diagnostics, National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC), Potters Bar EN6 3QC, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elaine","family":"Giles","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Analytical and Biological Sciences, NIBSC, Potters Bar EN6 3QC, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4309-1489","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sarah","family":"Kempster","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Disease Diagnostics, National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC), Potters Bar EN6 3QC, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yemisi","family":"Adedeji","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Disease Diagnostics, National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC), Potters Bar EN6 3QC, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Neil","family":"Almond","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Disease Diagnostics, National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC), Potters Bar EN6 3QC, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3701-752X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carolina","family":"Herrera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Imperial College London, London W2 1PG, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Coelho, A.V.C., and Crovella, S.
