Malaria: immune evasion by parasites

The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2005
Malaria 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

Staphylococcal innate immune evasion

Trends in Microbiology, 2005
Upon 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.

Vaccinia virus immune evasion

Immunology Letters, 1999
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.

Mechanisms of Immune Evasion by Gliomas

2012
A major contributing factor to glioma development and progression is its ability to evade the immune system. This chapter will explore the mechanisms utilized by glioma to mediate immunosuppression and immune evasion. These include intrinsic mechanisms linked to its location within the brain and interactions between glioma cells and immune cells.

Strategies of Tumor Immune Evasion

BioDrugs, 2005
During 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 ...

The hallmarks of cancer immune evasion

Cancer Cell
According to the widely accepted "three Es" model, the host immune system eliminates malignant cell precursors and contains microscopic neoplasms in a dynamic equilibrium, preventing cancer outgrowth until neoplastic cells acquire genetic or epigenetic alterations that enable immune escape.

Herpesvirus Evasion of the Immune System

1998
It is now well established that animal viruses evade host immunity by many different mechanisms. In an immunocompetent host, the evolutionary pressure brought to bear on viruses is obviously immense, and thus their existence will ultimately dependent upon one form or another of immune subterfuge, subversion, suppression, or abrogation.
