Dengue (DENV) and Chikungunya (CHIKV) viruses can be transmitted simultaneously by Aedes mosquitoes, and there may be co-infections in humans. However, how the adaptive immune response is modified in the host has yet to be known entirely. In this study, we analyzed the cross-reactivity and neutralizing activity of IgG antibodies against DENV and CHIKV in sera of patients from the Mexican Institute of Social Security in Veracruz, Mexico, collected in 2013 and 2015 and using IgG antibodies of BALB/c mice inoculated with DENV and/or CHIKV. Mice first inoculated with DENV and then with CHIKV produced IgG antibodies that neutralized both viruses. Mice were inoculated with CHIKV, and then with DENV; they had IgG antibodies with more significant anti-CHIKV IgG antibody neutralizing activity. However, the inoculation only with CHIKV resulted in better neutralization of DENV2. In sera obtained from patients in 2013, significant cross-reactivity and low anti-CHIKV IgG antibody neutralizing activity were observed. In CHIKV-positive 2015 sera, the anti-DENV IgG antibody neutralizing activity was high. These results suggest that CHIKV stimulates DENV2-induced memory responses and vice versa. Furthermore, cross-reactivity between the two viruses generated neutralizing antibodies, but exchanging CHIKV for DENV2 generated a better anti-CHIKV neutralizing response. |
