Figure 1. Infection-enhancement activity in serum samples with neutralizing activity to each of the four DENV serotypes.

Figure 1

Sixty serum samples exhibiting neutralizing activity to DENV were analyzed for presence of infection-enhancement activity to each of the four DENV serotypes: (A) DENV-1, (B) DENV-2, (C) DENV-3 and, (D) DENV-4. Infection-enhancement activity to each DENV serotype was determined by using FcγR-expressing cells by the formula: (mean plaque count at 1∶10 serum dilution)/(mean plaque count in the absence of human serum samples), and expressed as fold enhancement to each DENV serotype. Closed bars indicate serum samples with neutralizing titer PRNT50≥10 to the indicated DENV serotype and open bars indicate serum samples with neutralizing titer PRNT50<10 as determined using FcγR-negative BHK cells. (*) indicates P<0.05.
