Research Abstract |
Dengue illness has become a major public health concern particularly in tropical countries and the mechanism of thrombocytopenia remains uncertain. We previously reported from the clinical study in the Philippines a significant association between thrombocytopenia and an increased phagocytosis of platelets in an ex vivo setting during acute phase of secondary dengue virus infection (Honda S, et al. Am J Trop Med Hyg, 2009). We report here an increased phagocytosis of DV-induced apoptotic platelets by macrophages via a phosphatidylserine-recognizing pathway in secondary DV infection during the acute phase. Accelerated platelet clearance was overcome by thrombopietin-induced enhanced thrombopoiesis in these patients (Alonzo T, et al. J infect Dis, 2012).
