    Snippet: ZIKV was detected in the cerebrospinal fluid of ZIKV-infected adult patients that manifested meningoencephalitis, indicating that ZIKV invades the central nervous system through yet unknown mechanisms. Transcytosis through the endothelial cells of the blood brain barrier is a known mechanism of viral access to the central nervous system [53, 54] . Here we demonstrated, by different methodologies, that chloroquine protects hBMEC, an immortalized c.....
    Document: ZIKV was detected in the cerebrospinal fluid of ZIKV-infected adult patients that manifested meningoencephalitis, indicating that ZIKV invades the central nervous system through yet unknown mechanisms. Transcytosis through the endothelial cells of the blood brain barrier is a known mechanism of viral access to the central nervous system [53, 54] . Here we demonstrated, by different methodologies, that chloroquine protects hBMEC, an immortalized cell line widely used as in vitro model of the blood-brain barrier [25] , from ZIKV infection (Figure 4) .
