Immunotherapy of Infections
Based on the International Symposium on Immunotherapy of Infections held recently at the Robert Koch Institute, Berlin, Germany, this work discusses cytokines as well as synthetic and natural immunomodulators and their applications in the immunotherapy of bacterial, viral, parasitic and fungal infections.;The contributors describe innovative treatment concepts that act as adjuncts to established therapies for the control of both existing and newly emerging infectious diseases.
Immunotherapeutic Prospects of Infectious Diseases
The prevention and control of infectious diseases represents, even today, an important public health problem for responsible national and international authorities. Newly emerging p.athogens such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) , legionella, and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) have captured current public awareness. Despite significant success against smallpox, polio myelitis, mumps, and measles, the vast majority of infectious diseases are yet to be satisfactorily controlled. Limited efficacy of some vaccines, e. g., against influenza viruses, or their nonavailability have hampered an effective control of many infections. A meaningful reduction of the health risks posed by micr...
