Pentastomids and the immune response
Parasitology Today, 1992Pentastomids are a class of crustacean endoparosites that, as adults, parasitize the respiratory tract of vertebrates. They have evolved some unique strategies for long-term survival in vertebrate lungs which appear to be equally useful in thwarting inflammatory responses in the tissues of intermediate hosts.

Dermatophytosis and the immune response
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1994Dermatophytes are eliminated from the skin by a cell-mediated immune reaction. Immunity is acquired by active infection. The inflammatory reaction that ensues may increase the proliferatory activity of keratinocytes, causing the fungus to be sloughed from the skin surface.

Maturation of the Immune Response
1996This chapter focuses on the maturation of the immune response. The maturation of the immune system is considered to be a precisely controlled process, which results in a large number of highly differentiated cells, each committed to the production of a single (antibody).

Expert Reviews in Molecular Medicine, 2003
The role of the immune system in combating tumour progression has been studied extensively. The two branches of the immune response – humoral and cell-mediated – act both independently and in concert to combat tumour progression, the success of which depends on the immunogenicity of the tumour cells.

Immunology Letters, 2014
The innate immune response is of prime importance in the immediate recognition and elimination of invading micro-organisms. However, deregulation of this system is clearly associated with the pathogenesis of a wide range of inflammatory diseases. Innate immunity consists of a humoral and a cellular branch, which are closely interacting.

Development of the immune response
Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1973SummaryThe association of immunodeficiency with allergy is increasingly recognized. It is likely that defective antigen handling as a consequence of subtle degrees of immunodeficiency could predispose an individual to clinical allergy. Patterns of antigen handling established at first contact after birth with an antigen may affect the course of immune ...

Exercise and the Immune Response
Sports Medicine, 1988A growing number of reports have become available which implicate infectious disease with reduced performance in athletes. The immune system consists of both nonspecific and specific components geared to control infections. Adaptive immunity functions through both antibody-mediated and cell-mediated compartments to establish and maintain long term ...

Immunity and the immune response.
Modern veterinary practice, 1981The immune system is designed to discriminate self from nonself. This goal is accomplished by recognition, effector, and memory mechanisms. At the cellular level the immune system consists of macrophages and lymphocytes. The former constitute a major line of phagocytic cellular defenses.

microRNAs and the immune response
Trends in Immunology, 2008microRNA (miRNA)-mediated RNA interference has been identified as a novel mechanism that regulates protein expression at the translational level. Recent publications have provided compelling evidence that a range of miRNAs are involved in the regulation of immunity, including the development and differentiation of B and T cells, proliferation of ...

Modulating the immune response to genetic immunization
The FASEB Journal, 1998ABSTRACT Genetic immunization, also known as DNA or polynucleotide immunization, is a novel strategy for vaccine development in which plasmid DNA encoding either individual or a collection of antigens is directly administered to a host.
