Immune evasion strategies of flaviviruses
Vaccine, 2013Flavivirus is a genus of the family Flaviviridae. It includes West Nile virus (WNV), dengue virus (DENV), yellow fever virus (YFV), Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), and several other viruses which lead to extensive morbidity and mortality in humans.

SummaryVaccinia virus and other poxviruses express a wide variety of proteins which are nonessential for virus replication in culture but help the virus to evade the host response to infection. Examples include proteins which oppose apoptosis. Synthesise steroids, capture chemokines, counteract complement, interfere with interferon and intercept ...

Pneumocystis: Immune recognition and evasion
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2006Pulmonary infection caused by the opportunistic fungal organism Pneumocystis continues to be a leading AIDS defining illness. The initiation of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in the HIV-infected population has led to a significant reduction in the incidence of Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP), although recent trends suggest the incidence has ...

Viral Strategies of Immune Evasion
Science, 1998The vertebrate body is an ideal breeding ground for viruses and provides the conditions that promote their growth, survival, and transmission. The immune system evolved and deals with this challenge. Mutually assured destruction is not a viable evolutionary strategy; thus, the study of host-virus interactions provides not only a glimpse of life at ...

Immune evasion by gamma-herpesviruses
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2004Persistent viruses, such as herpesviruses, transmit infection by evading cytotoxic T cells during lytic replication. The gamma-herpesviruses additionally evade T cells during the proliferation of latently infected lymphocytes to establish a persistent viral reservoir.

Immune Evasion in Ebolavirus Infections
Viral Immunology, 2015Ebola virus (EBOV) infects humans as well as several animal species. It can lead to a highly lethal disease, with mortality rates approaching 90% in primates. Recent advances have deepened our understanding of how this virus is able to prevent the development of protective immune responses.

Malaria: immune evasion by parasites
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2005Malaria is one of the most life-threatening infectious diseases worldwide. Specific immunity to natural infection is acquired slowly despite a high degree of repeated exposure and rarely continues for a long time even in endemic areas. Malaria parasites have evolved to acquire diverse immune evasion mechanisms that evoke poor immune responses and allow

Vaccinia virus expresses many virulence factors that are non-essential for virus replication in cell culture but are important in vivo. In this paper three mechanisms are described that are used by vaccinia virus to evade the host immune response to infection.

Staphylococcal innate immune evasion
Trends in Microbiology, 2005Upon entering the human body, bacteria are confronted with the sophisticated innate defense mechanisms of the human host. From work in recent years it has become obvious that a new and growing family of small and excreted proteins can counteract the antibacterial effects of innate immunity.

Strategies of Tumor Immune Evasion
BioDrugs, 2005During the last decade, increased understanding of the molecular mechanisms responsible for immune activation to protect against challenges by tumor cells has revolutionized the field of immunotherapy research. It has been demonstrated that the dysfunction of the host's immune system represents one of the major mechanisms by which tumors evade ...
