Heat-shock proteins and host-pathogen interactions reviewed.
2004 OCT 6 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Scientists review heat-shock proteins and the host-pathogen interaction during bacterial infection in a recent issue of Current Opinion in Immunology.
"Heat-shock proteins (HSPs) are expressed at high levels by bacterial pathogens during adaptation to intracellular survival. Both host and pathogen heat-shock proteins contribute to immunity by receptor-mediated activation of the innate immune response and by participation in the presentation of antigens for the adaptive immune response," investigators in England report.
"Manipulation of these interactions presents a potential route to improved control of infection by vaccination or immunotherapy," wrote Graham R. Stewart and Douglas B. Young at Imperial College London.
Stewart and Young published their study in Current Opinion in ...
