FIG 6.

ZIKV targets vaginal epithelial cells. Five- to 6-week-old wild-type mice were treated with 2 mg of DMPA and 5 days later infected with 1,000 FFU ZIKV intravaginally. Vaginal tissue was harvested 2 to 10 dpi and paraffin embedded, and adjacent sections were stained for ZIKV RNA or H&E. Each image is a single field at 20× (scale bar = 100 μm).
