Host genetic factors are known to determine disease susceptibility in dengue virus infection.
Therefore, in this study association of gene polymorphisms of Vitamin D Receptor [rs731236 …

Dengue infection has been one of the major public health concerns in India causing simple
dengue fever (DF) to severe dengue infection. In the present study, contribution of TLR3, 7 …

Vitamin D is known to affect pathogenesis of dengue through modulation of immune
responses. Vitamin D exerts its effects through vitamin D receptor (VDR). The functioning of …

Materials and methods Ninety-eight cases of dengue virus (DV) infection and 98 healthy
controls were enrolled. Clinical details were recorded and cases were classified as severe …

Background: Dengue is the “phoenix” that never went to ashes. First identified in 1943, in
Japan, dengue virus has worldwide distribution and is a grave public health concern in …

Dengue is a pandemic-prone viral disease which is endemic in more than 100 countries and
which puts half of the world's population at risk. While the disease presents as subclinical …

Dengue virus has become one of the most important arboviral diseases of today. With nearly
half of the global population at risk, this infectious disease carries great significance. The …

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) occurring in immune-related genes have been
associated with risk or protection for development of dengue, depending on ethnicity. Here …

Aim: We attempted to study the susceptibility of single nucleotide polymorphism of the TLR3
gene in dengue encephalitis (DE) patients and determine the association in terms of …

Background Dengue is a systemic viral infection that spreads to humans by the bite of
infected Aedes mosquitoes. The secreted NS1 protein of dengue virus activates …
