Mice immunized with DEN-1 pre-matrix protein produced antibody which reacted with dengue virus infected cells and intact virions but failed to neutralize virus in vitro or in vivo. Newborn mice passively immunized with anti-DEN-1 pre-matrix antibody also failed to survive intracerebral infection with 100 LD50 of any dengue virus serotype.

Antisera from dengue patients and dengue virus infected rabbits recognized octapeptides corresponding to linear amino acid sequences in the envelope protein of dengue 2 (Jamaica 1409). Although no peptide was recognized by sera from all dengue infected hosts, two peptides (216LPLPWLPG223 and 448FSGVSWTM455) were recognized by sera from all dengue 2 infected rabbits. One of these 448FSGVSWTM455 was also recognized by sera from both the dengue 2 patients tested. No peptides were identified which reacted exclusively with all dengue 2 infected animals. Use of a mouse monoclonal antibody (1B7) enabled identification of two regions (50AKQPATLR57 and 127GKVVLPEN134) and possibly a third (349GRLITVNP356) in the envelope protein of dengue 2 likely to be involved in haemagglutination inhibition and virus neutralization in vitro.

AD: Department of Rheumatology, Barnsley District General Hospital, South Yorkshire, UK AB: It is becoming increasingly recognized that a variety of tropical infectious diseases may be associated with a wide range of rheumatic infections. These include viral arthropathies such as O'nyong-nyong, chikungunya, and dengue. Parasitic
