Immunological Insights and Emerging Therapeutics in Medical Mycology

About this book

Immunological Insights and Emerging Therapeutics in Medical Mycology summarizes the current knowledge on interactions between host cells and human fungal pathogens and explains how certain immune defects lead to vulnerability to fungal infection.Chapters focus on immune response to such fungal infections as candidiasis, aspergillus, cryptococcosis, mucormycosis, pneumocystis.This title provides a basis for further study on antifungal immunity by enhancing understanding of antifungal immune responses. Further, this title offers new insights from the host immune response, improving understanding of disease pathogenesis and informing novel prophylactic and therapeutic approaches to fungal infections. - Covers complex immune responses against superficial and systemic mycoses - Identifies key mechanisms by which immune defects predispose to fungal infection - Offers potential applications of immunotherapy in clinical practices
