We emphasize that our funda- mental understanding of virus–host relationships is moving in leaps and bounds, but we lag behind in applying this knowledge to the successful control of many viral infections.
Nevertheless, elucidating the nature of immune responses in individual natural hosts may inform our understanding of how virus–host equilibria are estab- lished without substantially impacting host health.
Furthermore, this may provide insights into the mechanisms of disease pathogenesis and immunity in humans.
We strongly believe that this book would provide enough insights into the cur- rent understanding of adaptive and innate immune response in viral diseases.
This book is an attempt to compile the novel information available on recent advance- ments on various aspects of differential regulation of each immune cell during viral pathogenesis and immune evasion.
This book aims to revitalize the interac- tion between fields of virology and immunology in order to advance our under- standing of dynamics of viral immune pathogenesis, as well as innate and adaptive immune responses elicited by the host.
The book also elucidates a comprehensive yet representative description of a large number of challenges associated with immune sensors, namely TLRs, DNA and RNA sensors, and other immune cells during viral infections, as it is indispensable to possess updated information on emerging viral diseases.
This book could be an essential reading for the novice and experts in the field of viral immunology, immune interventions, and viral immunodiagnostics, including latest developments in vaccine research. With these objectives in mind, the content of this textbook has been arranged in a logi- cal progression from fundamental to more advanced concepts.
Finally, this book also outlines the most advanced immune techniques used in diagnostics of viral diseases and also primarily focuses on advancements of vaccine development research for emerging viral diseases.
We hope that this book stimulates your creativity and wish you success in your experiments.
This book is a stunning reflection of the seriousness with which the several scientific minds are dedicated to the welfare of the scientific community.
I am extremely thankful to the contributors for paying continuous attention to my request and showing faith in my capabilities.
I shall always remain highly obliged to all of them forever. These words cannot justify the worthiness of their efforts.
