Editorial: Plant Immunity against Viruses
Plant viruses, the simple obligate intracellular parasites with small genomes, rely entirely on host machineries for their life cycle including replication, intracellular (cell-to-cell) and systemic movement (Nelson and Citovsky, 2005). Virus infections pose serious threats to agriculture and cause huge economic losses. Despite encoding only a limited number of proteins, numerous interactions o...
متن کاملCellular immunity against DNA tumour viruses: possibilities for peptide-based vaccines and immune escape.
Introduction The T-cell arm of the immune system plays an important role in the defence against viruses and virus-induced tumours [ 1,2]. Virus-induced tumours can be eradicated by both CD8' cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) and CD4+ T-helper lymphocytes (Th-cells) [ 1-31. These T-cells recognize antigenic peptides processed from viral (0nco)proteins or other tumour antigens that are presented in ...
متن کاملProtective Immunity and Vaccination Against Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
Although a great deal of knowledge has been gained from studies on the immunobiology of leishmaniasis, there is still no universally acceptable, safe, and effective vaccine against the disease. This strongly suggests that we still do not completely understand the factors that control and/or regulate the development and sustenance of anti-Leishmania immunity, particularly those associated with s...
متن کاملEstablishing herd immunity against Ebola through vaccination.
OBJECTIVES In response to recent concern regarding Ebola outbreaks, this study aims to (1) determine the relationship between vaccination coverage and herd immunity, (2) determine the vaccination coverage necessary to establish herd immunity for previous Ebola viruses, and (3) recommend vaccination coverage thresholds for future Ebola viruses. METHODS Herd immunity thresholds needed to block ...
متن کاملNatural immunity against human immunodeficiency viruses: prospects for AIDS vaccines.
We have hypothesized and have presented evidence that there may be another form of immunity, other than humoral and cellular immunities, which operates against retroviruses. In order to distinguish it from the traditional immune responses, we have named this form of immunity "molecular immunity". The major goal of this hypothesis is to better define the "messenger molecules" that are critical i...
