    Document: Dengue fever is an acute infectious disease caused by dengue virus (DENV), which is transmitted by mosquitoes to humans; about 50 million people are infected per year worldwide (Guzman et al., 2010) . According to different serotypes of the virus, four types (DENV types 1-4) are divided. Each type has the ability to cause disease. DENV infection causes varying degrees of disease manifestation, such as self-limited febrile dengue fever, skin rash or drowsiness, agitation, liver enlargement, or dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and even death. A second DENV infection may lead a life-threatening dengue shock syndrome (DSS) (Abel, Liautaud & Cabie, 2012; Kyle & Harris, 2008; Martina, Koraka & Osterhaus, 2009) . Currently, no specific therapy is available for the infection other than supportive treatments (Guzman et al., 2010) .
