The parasite-host relationship: an immunological game.

In the present paper we have analyzed the host-parasite relationship and the influence of parasite infections on the immune system. In all cases aberrations in either humoral or cellular immune response are observed. Moreover the constant feature of parasite infections is the stimulation of the reticular endothelial system that induce an increased aspecific resistance toward various antigens.

[Immunological tolerance: induction and abrogation].

The induction of a state of immune tolerance is a complex event which can take place at different stages of the immune response since it depends both upon the chemical structure and the experimental manipulation of the antigen. This paper deals mainly with the relationship between antigen structure and the kinds of tolerance induced.
