Using intracellular cytokine assays, we assessed the production of interferon γ (IFNγ), tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α), macrophage inflammatory protein‐1β (MIP‐1β), and CD107a expression in adult patients with acute DF (n = 21) and DHF (n = 22). The gene discussed is TNF; the disease is dengue disease.
