Two groups of people living in dengue endemic area were classified as susceptible or resistant to dengue virus (DENV) infection according to their anti-DENV antibody status. The miRNome from monocytes of 7 individuals of each group was assessed  upon mock- or DENV-2 infection
MicroRNA have emerged as important post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression which may play a crucial role in host resistance to DENV. We enrolled two groups of Thai population living in dengue endemic area, hypothesized as susceptible (SD) or resistant (RD) to DENV infection according to their anti-DENV antibody status. The miRNome from monocytes of 7 individuals of each group was assessed upon mock- or DENV-2 infection. We identified several upregulated miRNAs in the RD group after in vitro infection
