Genetic Basis of Host Resistance and Susceptibility to Intracellular Pathogens and in the endemic areas of the world. Although the influence of environmental factors must be considered in any explanation of such variability, it has recently become clear, mainly on the basis of studying experimental infections in inbred animals, that genetic factors play decisive role in indiv

Recognition and Binding of Pathogenic Yeasts by Adhesion Molecules of Human Macrophages of infections are acquired by inhalation of spores or fragments of the mycelial phase that is present in contaminated soil. After lodging within the pulmonary alveoli, spores or mycelial fragments convert to the yeast form of Hc that causes all subseqent disease manifestations. During the initial p

In this regard, the importance of mononuclear phagocytes in legionellosis has been suggested by a number of investigators (4,5,6). Guinea pigs are susceptible to

The Protective Role of T Cells in Immunity to Malariaausing malaria, a disease characterized by high morbidity and mortality worldwide. In an effort to develop an effective vaccine to combat this disease, research has focused primarily on extracellular stages of the parasite presumably because they should be more accessible to antibody-dependent resis
