Dengue Human Infection Models Supporting Drug Development
Dengue is a arboviral infection that represents a major global health burden. There is an unmet need for effective dengue therapeutics to reduce symptoms, duration of illness and incidence of severe complications. Here, we consider the merits of a dengue human infection model (DHIM) for drug development. A DHIM could allow experimentally controlled studies of candidate therapeutics in preselect...
متن کاملImunocompetent Mice Model for Dengue Virus Infection
Dengue fever is a noncontagious infectious disease caused by dengue virus (DENV). DENV belongs to the family Flaviviridae, genus Flavivirus, and is classified into four antigenically distinct serotypes: DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4. The number of nations and people affected has increased steadily and today is considered the most widely spread arbovirus (arthropod-borne viral disease) in t...
متن کاملDengue virus infection: predictors for severe dengue.
Dengue virus (DENV) infection is a mosquito born disease that is endemic in all WHO regions, except European region, and may present a broad range of severity. It may appear as an asymptomatic condition, dengue fever (DF), or life threatening forms, such as dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS), or the currently defined severe dengue. Currently there are means to diagno...
متن کاملThe role of the mosquito in a dengue human infection model.
Recent efforts to combat the growing global threat of dengue disease, including deployment of phase IIb vaccine trials, has continued to be hindered by uncertainty surrounding equitable immune responses of serotypes, relative viral fitness of vaccine vs naturally occurring strains, and the importance of altered immune environments due to natural delivery routes. Human infection models can signi...
متن کاملA with-in host Dengue infection model with immune response
A model of viral infection of monocytes population by dengue virus is formulated in a system of four ordinary differential equations. The model takes into account the immune response and the incidence rate of susceptible and free virus particle as Beddington-DeAngelis functional response. By constructing a block, the global stability of the uninfected steady state is investigated. This steady s...
