This comprehensive and up-to-date reference reviews the fundamental ideas and terminology used to evaluate viral and immune-mediated diseases and details the taxonomy, pathogenesis, epidemiology, immunology, clinical and differential diagnosis, and treatment of viral and virus-induced immune-mediated diseases of the nervous system. Uniting the clinical aspects and the basic biology of virus infections of the nervous system, the Handbook of Neurovirology • examines all aspects of the immune response to virus infection, including cellular and humoral immunity as well as interferon and cytokine responses • investigates the new concept of molecular mimicry • analyzes cerebrospinal fluid abnormalities associated with viral and immune-mediated syndromes • describes both RNA and DNA viruses and their diseases • covers virus classification, virion structure and structural proteins, viral genome structure, and viral gene regulation and replication • discusses selected animal models of viral infections that have been especially useful in delineating the pathogenesis of viral infections in man • and more!
