Immunity to Parasites: How Parasitic Infections are Controlled


This completely updated second edition provides a clear account of how immune responses operate and how parasites can evade immunity. Medical books Immunity to Parasites. Parasites have evolved to exploit hosts' bodies, whereas hosts have evolved immune systems to control infections. Host-parasite interactions therefore provide fascinating examples of evolutionary "arms-races" in which the immune system plays a key role. Including an expanded section on anti-parasite vaccines, the text focuses on modern research in immunoparasitology directed at understanding and exploiting the capacity to develop effective anti-parasite immunity. The experimental basis of this research is emphasized throughout Medical books Immunity To Parasites, 2e By Derek Wakelin.
