Macrophage Activation Syndrome-Associated Markers in Severe Dengue
Hemophagocytosis, a phenomenon of which activated macrophages phagocytosed hematopoietic elements was reportedly observed in severe dengue patients. In the present study, we investigated whether markers of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) can be used as differential diagnostic markers of severe dengue. Two hundred and eight confirmed dengue patients were recruited for the study. Sandwich EL...
متن کاملAutoimmune-Associated Hemophagocytic Syndrome/Macrophage Activation Syndrome
Hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS), also known as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) encompasses an infrequent group of non-malignant, yet potentially life-threatening disorders caused by massive cytokine release from activated lymphocytes and macrophages (Filipovich, 2009; Henter et al., 1998, 2007; Janka et al., 1998; Janka, 2009). This multisystem inflammatory syndrome is associated with a ...
متن کاملHistiocytic glomerulopathy associated with macrophage activation syndrome
We present an interesting case of a 37-year old man with acute renal failure following a febrile illness. Laboratory results showed features of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) with anemia, thrombocytopenia, hypofibrinogenemia and elevated ferritin levels. Renal biopsy was then done to determine the cause of renal failure and showed unique glomerular findings with massive histiocytic infilt...
متن کامل[Severe macrophage activation syndrome following visceral leishmaniasis in a child].
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a parasitic disease that is a public health problem in Morocco and is one of the frequent infectious causes of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS). The combination of clinical and laboratory criteria, even very unspecific, make it possible to diagnose MAS, but a definitive diagnosis requires cytological examination. Rapid treatment is essential. The outcome was f...
متن کاملCytokine active disulfide-HMGB1 increased during severe macrophage activation syndrome
Introduction Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is a lifethreatening complication of childhood systemic inflammatory disorders. HMGB1 is a nuclear protein that extracellularly orchestrates key events in inflammation. Recent data revealed that different redox states of three cysteines within HMGB1 render it with mutually exclusive activities: reduced all-thiol-HMGB1 exerts chemotactic activity...
