Acquired immunity to infectious diseases in fish: implications for the interpretation of fish disease surveys

نویسنده

  • Kai Lorenzen
چکیده

Fish disease surveys form a part of many biological monitoring programmes in European marine waters. Prevalence patterns of infectious diseases within wild fish populations are strongly influenced by the acquisition of immunity in individual fish. Hence, the interpretation of observed prevalence patterns requires understanding of the role of acquired immunity and immunomodulation in disease population dynamics. This review attempts to amalgamate information on the immune response in individual fish with theoretical considerations of its population consequences. Different approaches to the detection of acquired immunity in wild fish are discussed and recommendations for further research are made.

Innate Immunity Plays a Key Role in Leishmania Infection: Implications for Vaccine Design

Neutrophils are part of the first line of immune response and are essential for resistance against a variety of pathogens. They professionally mediate direct killing of pathogens, recruit other phagocytes by specific chemokines, produce cytokines and interact with different immune cells to shape the adaptive response. Leishmania as an obligatory intracellular parasite has evolved to benefit thi...
