Circulating hsa-miRNA-126 (CmiR-126) has been reported to involve in the pathogenesis of many infectious diseases including dengue virus infection. However, no prior study has been conducted to describe more details in dengue-infected pediatric patients. This study aimed to describe CmiR-126-3p in dengue-infected pediatric patients during the febrile and convalescent phases. Additionally, the correlations between CmiR-126-3p and other relevant clinical laboratory factors were investigated. Sixty paired-serum specimens collected during febrile and convalescent phases were retrieved from patients with dengue fever (DF) (n = 30) and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) (n = 30). Thirty paired-serum specimens collected from non-dengue acute febrile illness patients (AFI) were included as the control group. CmiR-126-3p was determined using reverse transcription quantitative real-time polymerase-chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Relative miRNA expression was calculated as 2 −ΔCt  using CmiR-16-5p for data normalization. CmiR-126-3p expression during febrile and convalescent phases in dengue-infected patients was significantly lower than AFI ( p  &lt; 0.05). However, miRNA levels were not different ( p  &gt; 0.05) compared between DF and DHF and between primary and secondary infection. CmiR-126-3p levels in DF in the convalescent were significantly higher than in the febrile phase ( p  = 0.025). No association between CmiR-126-3p and hematocrit, WBC level, platelet count, WBC differential count or dengue viral load was observed ( p  &gt; 0.05). The data suggest that hsa-miR-126-3p involved in pathogenesis of dengue infection and may be a promising early and late biomarker for DENV infection. However, hsa-miR-126-3p alone cannot be used as a predictor for dengue severity.
