A book examining various aspects of immune response and immune-based treatments for HIV infection. It discusses basic mechanisms, immunopathogenesis of HIV infection, and immune-based therapies. It reviews vaccine - including prospects of T cell vaccine - and gene therapy for HIV infection.
Leading experts provide the only comprehensive book examining all aspects of immune response and immune-based treatments for HIV infection. Contributions, divided into three sections, discuss basic mechanisms, immunopathogenesis of HIV infection, and immune-based therapies. Researchers thoroughly review vaccine - including prospects of T cell vaccine - and gene therapy for HIV infection. Additional topics include organization of HIV genes, the role of co-receptors in signaling of lymphocytes, and biological response modifiers. This reference is designed for basic and clinical researchers, internists, pediatricians, infectious disease specialists, neuropathologists, oncologists, and rheumatologists.
