El dengue es hoy la más importante arbovirosis, por su gran carga de enfermedad e implicaciones sociales. El mosquito Aedes aegypti, su principal transmisor convive con el hombre en su hábitat domestico y peridoméstic...

Dengue is the single most important human viral infection transmitted by insects. The function of the viral proteins andtheir interactions with the host cell is under exhaustive investigation with the aim of identifying ...

Introduction: Dengue is a public health problem worldwide. It was originally confined to tropical and subtropical areas, but it is now present in other regions, such as Argentina. Epidemic outbreaks have been observed in...

A situação epidemiológica da dengue no Brasil é apresentada, mostrando-se a introdução e a dispersão do vetor e dos diferentes sorotipos do vírus no Brasil. No presente momento, o Aedes aegypti, o vetor, encontra...

Dengue virus is responsible for the highest rates of disease and mortality among the members of the Flavivirus genus. Dengue epidemics are still occurring around the world, indicating an urgent need of prophylactic vacci...

Levantam-se aspectos críticos das práticas de educação, comunicação e mobilização comunitárias realizadas para o controle do dengue no Brasil, tema de grande relevância na atualidade, em um contexto que desafia...

Background: Argentina is located at the southern temperate range of arboviral transmission by the mosquito Aedes aegypti and has experienced a rapid increase in disease transmission in recent years. Here we present findi...

Infection by any of the four dengue virus (DENV) serotypes produces a wide spectrum of clinical illness in humans. Differences in clinical manifestation and severity have been associated with secondary heterologous infec...

Presentamos un análisis de materiales didácticos e informativos sobre dengue, elaborados por Ministerios de Salud y Educación de diferentes jurisdicciones de Argentina. Realizamos un análisis de contenido indagando d...

Abstract Background Dengue fever is hyperendemic in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (PDR), where transmission is driven by Aedes mosquitoes and influenced by large-scale climatic phenomena, including the El Niño-...

Abstract Background While malaria control is the primary health focus in Burkina Faso, the recent dengue epidemic calls for new interventions. This paper examines the implementation fidelity of an innovative intervention...

As características históricas, sociais e ecológicas da dengue têm motivado ações de educação em saúde visando medidas preventivas. Ações educativas e comunitárias que partam do contexto da população envolvi...

Resumo Este trabalho investiga se a segmentação dos grupos sociais no tecido urbano, com acesso diferenciado aos recursos e serviços da cidade, pode influenciar na distribuição espacial e temporal dos casos de dengu...

Abstract Background The ecdysone receptor (EcR) is a central regulator of mosquito physiology, best known for its role in vitellogenesis. However, its contribution to antiviral defense and dengue virus (DENV) replication...

Abstract Dengue virus (DENV) transmission in Bolivia has historically been restricted to tropical lowland regions, where the primary vector Ae. aegypti is endemic. In recent years, however, the vector has expanded into h...

Dengue virus nonstructural protein 3 (NS3) is a multifunctional protein formed by a superfamily-2 RNA helicase linked to a protease domain. In this work, we report results from in vitro experiments designed to determine ...

Introduction: Dengue virus (DENV) is the causative agent of the most prevalent human disease transmitted by mosquitoes in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. At present, no antiviral drug is available and the dif...

Con el objetivo de describir las percepciones comunitarias para la prevención del dengue en las localidades afectadas de Lima, realizamos un estudio cualitativo a través de entrevistas desde el modelo de creencias en s...

Dengue virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase specifically binds to the viral genome by interacting with a promoter element known as stem-loop A (SLA). Although a great deal has been learned in recent years about the functio...

Introduction: Dengue is an arboviral disease transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, prevalent in tropical regions, particularly in Latin America. Clinical manifestations range from mild illness to severe forms with mul...

BackgroundThe dengue virus (DENV) can cause various clinical syndromes and organ damage, known as dengue fever, with the probability of developing severe dengue. However, the underlying mechanisms of host response agains...
