Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), a mosquito-borne alphavirus, causes acute febrile illness that can progress into chronic chikungunya virus disease (CHIKVD) marked by persistent debilitating arthralgia. At present, the exact cause of chronic CHIKVD is not understood, and in humans, the targets of CD4 + T cells in CHIKV are currently unknown. Here, by stimulating peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PB...
