Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 2 Virus infection and fluorescence-assisted cell sorting. (A) Schematic overview of virus infection and sorting of cerebral organoid cultures. (B) Example of a plaque assay readout. Vero cells were infected with 10-fold serial dilutions as indicated. (C) Examples of cell sorting plots for isolating astrocytes, neurons, and neural progenitor cells from hESC-derived cerebral organoid cultures. (D) Illustration of ZIKV– and ZIKV+ FACS gating for all cells and sorted neural progenitors, astrocytes, and neurons.
