ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chom.2017.02.011 | Abstract: | Dengue hemorrhagic fever is shown to correlate with secondary infection with a virus serotype different from the previous infection. However, only a small fraction of secondary infections leads to hemorrhagic fever. A recent Science paper suggests that the fucosylation state and isotype of IgGs elicited in patients may enhance disease severity. | Source Title: | Cell Host and Microbe | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/168508 | ISSN: | 1931-3128 1934-6069 |
