Recent developments in the immunobiology of Pneumocystis
1Institute of Medical Parasitology, Catholic University of Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Abstract:
Available data on the immune responses to Pneumocystis are discussed leading to the general conclusion that T lymphocytes and monocytic cells are involved in host defence. Recent progress in characterization of parasite antigens is reviewed with special reference to the development of monoclonal antibodies specific for Pneumocystis.
