Dendritic Cells and Virus Infection (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Steinkasserer, Alexander

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Dendritic cells are vital to induce potent anti-viral immune responses. It will become clear to the reader that dendritic cells often play a dual role during viral infections. On the one hand they are able to mount potent antiviral immune responses, and on the other hand several viruses, including HIV-1, use DC as a vector to be transferred from the periphery to the lymph nodes where they infect their prime target.
