Immunopathogenesis of Chlamydia pneumoniae Infections in Children

hclamydia pneumoniae is emerging as a frequent ause of respiratory disease in children as well as adults. C. pneumoniae infection in children presents a different set of problems regarding disease presentation and diagnosis compared to adults. Several studies of the role of C. pneumoniae in lower respiratory tract infection in pediatric populations have found evidence of infection in 0 to over ...

Immunopathogenesis of central nervous system fungal infections.

Fungal infections of the central nervous system (CNS) evoke humoral and cellular immune responses with the scope to enable the host to eliminate the pathogen. Immunopathogenesis of CNS fungal infections remains incompletely understood, with most of our understanding coming from studies on experimentally infected animals. However, activation of brain resident cells combined with relative express...

Immunopathogenesis Versus Protection in Dengue Virus Infections.

Dengue viruses (DENV) are mosquito-borne viruses that cause significant morbidity. The existence of four serotypes of DENV with partial immunologic cross-reactivity creates the opportunity for individuals to experience multiple acute DENV infections over the course of their lifetimes. Research over the past several years has revealed complex interactions between DENV and the human innate and ad...
