Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is evolutionarily determined that the immune system copes with the harmful effects of viruses and bacteria, as well as the development of autoimmune and tumor processes. Managing these health challenges successfully relies on a multitude of distinct and specific cells, the complexity of immune system components (including innate, humoral, and cellular), and the interplay of complex genetic and environmental factors. The principles that control the immune response to infection manifest in many normal physiological processes and in autoimmunity, making them applicable to cancer treatment.
The current Special Issue will attempt to provide a comprehensive overview of recent developments in the field of immunology and inflammation management. Our goal is to organize a collection of cutting-edge research and expert perspectives (original research articles, short communications, and reviews) that shed light on innovative approaches for immune activation, modulation, and tolerance in the context of immune and anti-inflammatory therapies to improve human health.
