  • 260 Accesses

Part of the book series: Handbuch der Molekularen Medizin ((HDBMOLEK,volume 4))

Zusammenfassung

Der Verlauf von Infektionen wird durch Reaktionen zwischen Erreger- und Wirtsstrukturen bestimmt. Zahlreiche Reaktionen dieser Art finden zwischen spezialisierten Abwehrmolekülen des Wirts wie z. B. Antikörpern und zufällig beteiligten Erregerstrukturen statt. Ihnen stehen andere gegenüber, die vom Erreger ausgehen. Moleküle des Erregers reagieren dabei selektiv mit Zielmolekülen des Wirts, meist um Invasion, Vermehrung oder Persistenz des Erregers zu vermitteln. Eine große Zahl solcher Erregermoleküle sind bereits als Pathogenitätsfaktoren identifiziert und charakterisiert; sie alle zu beschreiben würde den Rahmen dieses Kapitels sprengen. Gleichermaßen von Interesse sind bei dieser Art Reaktionen die Partner auf Seiten des Wirts. Dies sind in der Regel Moleküle, die für die Entwicklung der Infektionserreger von essentieller Bedeutung sind.
