Serum angiopoietin-2 and soluble VEGF receptor 2 are surrogate markers for plasma leakage in patients with acute dengue virus infection
Highlights • Endothelial cells are important in the development of plasma leakage during dengue. • Markers produced by endothelial cells in relation to plasma leakage were investigated. • Levels of angiopoietin-2 were increased in dengue patients with plasma leakage. • Levels of sVEGFR-2 were decrea...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • Endothelial cells are important in the development of plasma leakage during dengue. • Markers produced by endothelial cells in relation to plasma leakage were investigated. • Levels of angiopoietin-2 were increased in dengue patients with plasma leakage. • Levels of sVEGFR-2 were decreased in dengue patients with plasma leakage. • Angiopoietin-2 and sVEGFR-2 can serve as surrogate markers for plasma leakage. |
