After the last epidemic of Zika virus (ZIKV) in Brazil that peacked in 2016, it has been demonstrated growing evidence of the link between this teratogenic flavivirus and microcephaly cases. However, no vaccine or antiviral drug has been yet approved. ZIKV and Dengue virus (DENV) entry to the host cell takes place through several receptors including DC-SIGN (dendritic cell-specific intercellular adhesion
在巴西上一次寨卡病毒 (ZIKV) 于 2016 年爆发后,越来越多的证据表明这种致畸黄病毒与小头畸形病例之间存在联系。然而,尚未批准任何疫苗或抗病毒药物。ZIKV 和登革热病毒 (DENV) 通过多种受体进入宿主细胞,包括 DC-SIGN(树突细胞特异性细胞间粘附分子-3-抓取非整联蛋白),因此通过多价糖缀合物阻断该受体有望抑制感染过程的
