What is Immune Response in Pneumocystis Infections about?
This review discusses the immune response to Pneumocystis infections, highlighting the differences between immunocompetent and immunocompromised hosts. It emphasizes that while immunocompetent individuals can effectively eliminate the fungus without symptoms, immunodeficient hosts may experience excessive inflammation leading to lung damage. The review aims to clarify the roles of various immune cells, particularly lymphocytes, in the pathophysiology of Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP).
