dc.description.abstractThere is now convincing evidence, both clinical and experimental, that cell-mediated immunity is crucial to host recovery from oral or OPC. This infection, however, appears to demonstrate a gradation between the involvement of the innate and adaptive immune responses, depending on the severity of the challenge. CD4+ lymphocytes are certainly involved in the more severe manifestations of the disease, but the precise pathways through which they interact with the phagocytic effector cells that clear the infection have yet to be completely elucidated. Oral immunization can confer protection, but again, the mechanisms by which this is achieved require further investigation.
