Persistent viral infections include widespread diseases such as AIDS, hepatitis, herpes and measles. These infections are implicated in a range of other diseases including cancer, immunodeficiency and neurological complications. The purpose of this text is to provide details on the immunobiology and pathogenesis of persistent viral infections in humans as well as animal models. It also covers treatment strategies and should offer insight into both basic and clinical aspects of the area. A volume on the immunobiology and pathogenesis of persistent viral infections of humans and selected animal models. It groups together the viral infections under disease manifestations and covers most of the human viruses of medical importance.

De la contraportada

Persistent Viral Infections Edited by Rafi Ahmed Emory Vaccine Center, Atlanta, USA and Irvin S. Y. Chen UCLA School of Medicine, Los Angeles, USA During the past decade much of our attention has focused on diseases associated with viral persistence. Major breakthroughs in immunology, and the advent of molecular approaches to study pathogenesis have increased our understanding of the complex virus-host interactions that occur during viral persistence. Persistent Viral Infections focuses on:
* The pathogenesis and immunology of chronic infections
* Animal models that provide, or have the potential to provide, major insights
This volume will be essential reading for virologists, immunologists, oncologists and neurologists.
