Immune profiling in DENV-treated whole blood cells 24 h postincubation. Following DENV () coculture in 100 μl of WB ex vivo for 24 h, (a) representative flow cytometric analysis and gating of various cells obtained from five cases, performed by staining for specific cell surface markers (CD4, CD8, CD11c, CD14, CD16, CD19, CD25, CD56, CD62L, and HLA-DR), in the DENV-infected and mock groups showed (b) the changes in the expression of specific immune cell populations as noted. (c) The results are shown as a percentage of the obtained from five cases. , , and , compared to the mock group. R: region; WBC: white blood cell; bri: bright.
