Infection control in the brain and the eye

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page e478-e490, August 2026.
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...
