Association between dengue severity and plasma levels of dengue-specific IgE and chymase

Abstract: There is no definitive predictor of dengue severity, and this has led to a very large number of unnecessary hospitalizations worldwide. Although mast cell mediators are believed to a play role in dengue severity, the lack of precise kinetic data demands further research on early predictors. We enrolled 111 patients with confirmed dengue and 85 with "other febrile illness" (OFI) in a hospital-based prospective study in Vietnam. Dengue patients were classified as level 1, 2, or 3 based on the clinical interventi… Show more

“…Increased vascular permeability, the hallmark of severe dengue, is thought to be provoked by mast cells ( 48 ). We and others have previously shown the important role of mast cell-derived mediators, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), tryptase, chymase, in vascular permeability in dengue severity ( 19 , 48 , 49 ). However, it is still unknown why the onset of vascular leakage occurs during defervescence.…”

“…This was a hospital-based prospective study conducted at Nguyen Dinh Chieu Hospital, Ben Tre province, Vietnam, from July 2011 to May 2013. The inclusion and exclusion criteria have been described elsewhere in our previous report (19) and provided in the Supplementary Materials. In our design, after the identification of dengue patients who met the inclusion criteria, they were required to be hospitalized despite having no severe manifestations at the time of recruitment.…”

“…Mast cells are shown to be permissive to infection by the DENV, which is enhanced in the presence of DENV-specific antibodies Syenina et al, 2015). Many proteases and inflammatory mediators produced by mast cells such as chymases, tryptases, platelet activating factor (PAF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) have been implicated in vascular leak and disease pathogenesis (Furuta et al, 2012;Jeewandara et al, 2015;Kamaladasa et al, 2016;Tissera et al, 2017;Inokuchi et al, 2018;Malavige et al, 2018). As mast cells reside in tissues and around blood vessels, it has been difficult to determine their infectivity rates by the DENV and phenotypic changes .…”

“…Unfortunately, there is no reliable routine prognostic test available yet [ 9 ]. There have been growing efforts made on the discovery of predictors based on severity biomarkers alone or in combination with dengue clinical signs [ 8 11 ], however these are either not validated clinically or the evidence is not adequate for clinical application [ 12 14 ].…”
