Apr 22, 2024 · Dengue viruses (DENV) are positive-stranded RNA viruses belonging to the Flaviviridae family. DENV is the causative agent of dengue, the most rapidly spreading viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes. Each year, millions of people contract the virus through bites from infected female mosquitoes of the Aedes species. In the majority of individuals, the infection is asymptomatic, and the immune ...
Apr 25, 2024 · Dengue is an acute febrile illness viral infection caused by dengue virus (DENV), which is transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected Aedes mosquito 1,2,3.There are four genetically ...
May 1, 2024 · The global burden of the mosquito-borne dengue virus continues to increase with an estimated 3.9 billion people at risk of infection [].During the last two decades, the number of reported dengue cases has increased by more than eightfold to over 4 million in 2019, particularly in tropical and sub-tropical regions in the Americas and Asia [].

Apr 25, 2024 · Author summary Dengue, caused by dengue virus (DENV), is the most prevalent mosquito-transmitted disease in humans and a significant public health issue worldwide. DENV nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) has been shown to contribute to dengue pathogenesis through the induction of endothelial barrier dysfunction, resulting in hyperpermeability and vascular leak–a key feature of severe dengue ...
May 4, 2024 · Dengue virus (DENV) is a continuing global threat that puts half of the world’s population at risk for infection. This mosquito-transmitted virus is endemic in over 100 countries. When a mosquito takes a bloodmeal, virus is deposited into the epidermal and dermal layers of human skin, infecting a variety of permissive cells, including keratinocytes, Langerhans cells, macrophages, dermal ...
Apr 15, 2024 · A complex interaction among virulence factors, host-genes and host immune system is considered to be responsible for dengue virus (DENV) infection and disease progression. Generation of auto-antibodies during DENV infection is a major phenomenon that plays a role in the pathophysiology of dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Hemostasis, thrombocytopenia, hepatic endothelial ...
Apr 25, 2024 · Abstract. Dengue is the most prevalent mosquito-borne viral disease in humans, and cases are continuing to rise globally. In particular, islands in the Caribbean have experienced more frequent outbreaks, and all four dengue virus (DENV) serotypes have been reported in the region, leading to hyperendemicity and increased rates of severe disease.
