Popis: Background Pathogenesis of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) has not been well described yet. Recent studies indicate that SFTSV could replicate in endothelial cells. Here we performed a case-control study to determine whether endothelial activation/dysfunction occurred in SFTSV infection and to identify the biomarkers reflecting endothelial dysfunction. Methodology/Principal findings In a case-control study of 134 SFTS patients and 68 healthy controls, serum levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, tissue plasminogen activator, P-selectin, platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecular, CD40 ligand, E-selectin, vascular endothelial growth factor A, serum amyloid antigen 1 (SAA-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecular 1 were significantly enhanced in the patients than the controls (all P
Author summary Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a tick-borne viral disease and first reported in the rural areas of China. Pathogenesis of the disease has not been well described yet. Recent studies indicated that SFTSV replicated in endothelial cells. So, we performed a case-control study to explore whether endothelial activation/dysfunction occurred in SFTSV infection and to identify biomarkers reflecting endothelial dysfunction. We found that the occurrence of endothelial activation/dysfunction in severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome and the serum levels of ICAM-1 and SAA-1 might be used to predict adverse outcome.
