Based on the extensive literature on serum cytokines in dengue patients that implicates these soluble mediators in protection/severity, we chose to query TNF-α, IP-10, IL-6, and IL-10 from monocytes and granulocytes along with TNF-α, IP-10, IL-10, and IFN-γ from NK and NKT cell subsets. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL10 and dengue disease.
