Gene expression profiles in individuals with asymptomatic infections against cognate household members with dengue fever
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Dengue represents one of the most serious life-threatening vector-borne infectious diseases that afflict ~50 million people across the globe annually. Whilst symptomatic infections are frequently reported, asymptomatic dengue largely remain unnoticed. The immune correlates conferring protection to individuals that remain clinically asymptomatic have seldom been investigated. We determined the gene expression profiles of host immune factors in individuals with asymptomatic infections, and whose cognate household members showed symptoms and signs consistent to clinical dengue infection. Results provide insight in association of certain host genes to protection against clinical dengue.
