Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEpitope Mapping of Dengue-Virus-Enhancing Monoclonal-Antibody Using Phage Display Peptide LibraryChung-I Rai, Huan-Yao Lei, Yee-Shin Lin et al.The Antibody-Dependent Enhancement (ADE) hypothesis has been proposed to explain why more severe manifestations of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever and Dengue Shock Syndrome (DHF/DSS) occur predominantly during secondary infections of Dengue Virus (DV) with different serotypes. However, the epitopes recognized by these enhancing antibodies are unclear. Recently, antipre-M monoclonal antibody (mAb 70-21), which recognized all DV serotypes without neutralizing activity, were … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsControl of the Transmission of Chikungunya Fever Epidemic Through the use of AdulticideS. Naowarat, Walaipun Tawara, I. Ming TangProblem statement: Another newly emerging disease, chikungunya fever, has appeared in various places such as the Island of Réunion, Thailand and other India. To control an epidemic of disease once it has been established, the use of adulticide is proposed. Approach: To simulate the effects of different control measurement, a mathematical model incorporating the specific features of this disease has … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 7,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Hybrid GANN in Comparison with Other Standalone Models on Dengue Outbreak PredictionNor Azura Husin, Norwati Mustapha, Md. Nasir Sulaiman et al.Early prediction of diseases especially dengue fever in the case of Malaysia, is very crucial to enable health authorities to develop response strategies and context preventive intervention programs such as awareness campaigns for the high risk population before an outbreak occurs. Some of the deficiencies in dengue epidemiology are insufficient awareness on the parameter as well as the combination among … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 2 Jul 2016 · 8,162 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSIR Transmission Model of Dengue Virus Taking Into Account Two Species of Mosquitoes and an Age Structure in the Human PopulationR. Sungchasit, P. Pongsumpun, I. M. TangDengue is a vector-borne disease. It is transmitted to humans by the bites of the Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. The human population is separated into two classes, a child class and an adult class, each class being described by a SIR model. The transmission rates of the two mosquito species are different and depend on what class the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 28 Jul 2015 · 6,511 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDETECTABLE ANTI-DENGUE VIRUS IGM ANTIBODIES AMONG HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS IN OGBOMOSO, OYO STATE, NIGERIAE. K. Oladipo, C. Amanetu, T. A. Gbadero, J. K. OlokeDengue fever is a zoonosis maintained in nature by mosquitoes transmitting virus between non-human primate species, most of which develop clinically in apparent infection. It has been found to be endemic in Africa and beyond. A survey for Dengue virus IgM antibody was carried out in Ogbomoso (urban and rural areas) using Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (WKEA Med Supplies Corp, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 3 May 2014 · 7,827 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effectiveness of Organotin (IV) Benzylisopropyldithiocarbamate Compounds as Insecticide Against Aedes Aegypti Linn (Diptera: Culicidae) in LaboratoryHidayatulfathi Othman, Nor Atikah Kosnon, Normah Awang, Nurul Farahana KamaludinProblem statement: The widespread use of insecticides had resulted in insecticide resistance of vectors of dengue as well as polluting the environment. Organotin (IV) compounds had the potential to be developed as the insecticides to overcome the existing problem. Approach: The aim of this study was to examine the insecticidal effects which were larvicidal and adulticidal effects of organotin (IV) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 25 Jun 2012 · 6,980 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractC-Terminal Region of Dengue Virus Nonstructural Protein 1 Is Involved in Endothelial Cell Cross-Reactivity via Molecular MimicryShu-Wen Wan, Chiou-Feng Lin, Mei-Chun Chen et al.Infection with dengue virus (DV) causes diseases ranging from self-limited dengue fever to life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Vascular leakage, thrombocytopenia and bleeding are the clinical manifestations associated with dengue hemorrhage. We previously showed that anti-DV nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) antibodies (Abs) cross-reacted with endothelial cells. The potential target proteins on endothelial cell surface recognized by anti-DV … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeneration of Anti-platelet Autoantibody During Dengue Virus InfectionKao-Jean Huang, Yee-Shin Lin, Hsiao-Sheng Liu et al.Dengue virus infection causes dengue fever, Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) and Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS). Thrombocytopenia is common in dengue fever and is always found in DHF/DSS. The pathogenesis of thrombocytopenia is poorly understood. To further understand the relationship between anti-dengue virus antibody and anti-platelet antibody, we generated monoclonal anti-dengue virus antibodies from the dengue virus infected mice that developed … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDengue Virus Infection Induced NF-κB-dependent Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor ProductionLien-Cheng Chen, Huey-Wen Shyu, Huan-Yao Lei et al.Dengue virus (DV) infection can cause mild dengue fever or severe dengue hemorrhage fever and dengue shock syndrome. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a cytokine that plays an important role in the modulation of inflammatory and immune responses and serum levels of MIF are correlated with disease severity in dengue patients. However, the mechanism that induces MIF production during … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,290 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation of IFN-Inducible Protein 10 Levels in Sera with Disease Severity and Clinical Outcome of the Dengue PatientsYing-Ray Lee, Nguyen-Thanh Hung, Ching-Chuan Liu et al.Dengue Virus (DV) infection may cause life-threatening Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) and Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS). Although many cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of DHF/DSS have been reported, the expression status of IFN-inducible protein-10 (IP-10) in dengue patients is still unknown. This is the first report to unravel that IP-10 level was significantly elevated in the sera of Dengue Fever … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,051 accessesView PDFCite
