Investigation of the Immuno-regulation and Viral Hepatitis Among Patients With or After Dengue Fever Infection

• Conditions: Dengue Fever
• Interventions: Other: case/control

• Registration Number: NCT00688389
• Lead Sponsor: Kaohsiung Medical University Chung-Ho Memorial Hospital

Brief Summary

The study will collect the blood samples from 350 healthy persons and 350 persons infected with dengue fever.

Detailed Description

Research has showed that CLEC5A interacts with dengue virion directly, and is responsible for dengue virus (DV)-induced DAP12 phosphorylation. Data suggests that CLEC5A is a potential therapeutic target for dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF)/dengue shock syndrome (DSS). This project will study the genes of CLEC5A, Mannose receptor, DC-SIGN, NALP, decoy receptor 3 (DcR3), Toll-like receptors(TLRs), and (Nod)-like receptors (NLRs) for both DF and DHF groups. In addition, serum level of decoy receptor 3 (DcR3) will be tested. The study will collect the blood samples from 350 healthy persons and 350 persons infected with dengue fever.
