Abstract Background Dengue and Dengue hemorrhagic fever have emerged as some of the most important mosquito-borne viral diseases in the tropics. The mechanisms of pathogenesis of Dengue remain elusive. Recently virus-induced apoptosis mediated by the Unfolded Protein Response UPR has been hypothesised to represent a crucial pathogenic event in viral infection. In an attempt to evaluate the contribution of the UPR to virus replication we have characterized each component of this signalling pathway following Dengue virus infection. Results We find that upon Dengue virus infection A549 cells elicit an UPR which is observed at the level of translation attenuation as visualized by the phosphorylation of eIF2alpha and activation of .
