}BACKGROUND
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging viral disease in China, caused by SFTS virus (SFTSV). Severe SFTS patients can quickly proceed to multiorgan dysfunction and death; however, underlying pathogenic mechanisms remain unclear.
METHODS
Serum samples from 15 fatal and 44 nonfatal SFTS cases were subjected to multiplex-microbead immunoassays to detect a broad spectrum of cytokines. The viral load and virus-specific IgG titers were also tested by real-time…

Correlation of cytokine level with the severity of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome

The concentration of IFN-α as well as other cytokines (IFN-γ, G-CSF, MIP-1α, IL-6, and IP-10) is correlated with the severity of SFTS, suggesting that type I interferon may not be significant in resistance SFTSV infection in humans and it may play an import role in cytokine storm.

Investigation of the pathogenic mechanism of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome found SFTSV could cause a cytokine change: the cytokine levels of patients had different degrees of fluctuation after the onset of the disease, and the levels of IL‐6, IP‐10, and RANTES were correlated with the viral load.

It was demonstrated that dysregulated inflammatory response was associated with disease pathogenesis and mortality in SFTS patients and the concentrations of RANTES and PDGF were remarkably positively correlated with the platelet count.

Investigation of virologic and immunologic factors for fatal outcomes of patients with SFTS found severe signs of inflammation such as a high plasma concentration of IFN-α, IL-10, IP- 10,IFN-γ, IL,6,IL-8, MCP-1, MIP-1α, and G-CSF, and inadequate antibody response during the disease course were associated with mortality in SFTS patients.

The mechanisms behind the high CFR may be multi-organ failure induced by hemophagocytic syndrome and coagulopathy due to disseminated intravascular coagulation causing bleeding tendency, and understanding of the pathophysiology of SFTS is required to reduce the morbidity and mortality.

It is demonstrated that SFTSV infection in fatal cases caused an excessive inflammatory response through high induction of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines and the aberrant inactivation of adaptive immune responses.

High expression of cytokines activating T-lymphocytes, monocytes and macrophages in the early phase of disease supports the hypothesis of an immune-mediated pathogenesis and suggests that delayed induction of a protective immune mechanism to downregulate a massive early pro-inflammatory immune response might contribute to the pathologies characteristic of human hantavirus infection.
