Area of Science:

Virology
Immunology
Biotechnology

Background:

Dengue viruses (DENVs) are significant global health threats, prevalent in tropical/subtropical regions.
Current treatment and prevention strategies for dengue diseases remain limited.
Virus-like particles (VLPs) are non-infectious structures that mimic viral particles and induce immune responses.

Purpose of the Study:

To review the assembly and maturation processes of DENVs.
To discuss strategies and key factors for constructing dengue virus-like particles (DENV VLPs).
To explore the applications of DENV VLPs in research and potential interventions.

Main Methods:

Literature review of studies on Dengue virus assembly and maturation.
Analysis of research on VLP formation using viral structural proteins.
Compilation of data on DENV VLP applications.

Main Results:

DENVs exhibit complex assembly and maturation pathways.
Various strategies exist for engineering DENV VLPs, influenced by specific protein interactions and assembly factors.
DENV VLPs show promise in vaccine development and immunological studies.

Conclusions:

Understanding DENV assembly is crucial for VLP design.
Optimized VLP construction strategies can enhance immunogenicity.
DENV VLPs represent a promising platform for developing dengue prevention and control measures.
