Multiplex cytokine profile from dengue patients: MIP-1beta and IFN-gamma as predictive factors for severity

Abstract

Our data demonstrated that the use of a multiple cytokine assay platform was suitable for identifying distinct cytokine profiles associated with the dengue clinical manifestations and severity. MIP-beta is indicated for the first time as a good prognostic marker in contrast to IFN-gamma that was associated with disease severity.
