Abstract
In this study, significant differences were observed in the IgM, IgA and IgE response between the study groups. High IgA and IgE OD ratios in secondary dengue cases were found. The usefulness of serotype specific IgM antibody detection is also analyzed and discussed. A priority for future dengue research in terms of protection, recovery of infection and immunopathogenesis is to elucidate the role of these immunoglobulins. The cross reactivity response to IgM between dengue virus serotypes in primary and secondary cases should also be more studied.
