1. Introduction
Chikungunya fever is a persistent joint pain disease caused by
mosquito-borne arboviruses: chikungunya virus (CHIKV). In Chikungunya
fever, inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, Il-17, IL-22, and IL-23
[1,2] are involved in chronic joint pain, but there are no reports on
whether IL-36 is specified as a cause of joint pain. This case study
compares the changes in IL-36α and β levels during infected chikungunya
fever and the recovery. This article highlights the relationship between
chikungunya fever and IL-36.
