New conceptual frameworks have emerged with regard to the processing and presen tation of peptides and nonpeptide antigens from microbes, especially bacteria, to T cells in the context of classical MHC class I and nonconventional MHC I molecules. Experimen tal models have been instrumental in defining some of these pathways for generating pro tective immune responses against microbes, which form the basis for the design of new vaccines. New evidence has stressed the importance of innate immunity in microbial in fections. The concept of dichotomy within T helper cells has revealed the role of these cell types in resistance and susceptibility to microbial-mediated pathology. These latest devel opments in microbial immunity are discussed in this volume. Natural killer cell development is known to be regulated by the presence of MHC class I antigens. Receptors for MHC class I molecules on NK cells have been discovered. Interaction of these receptors with their specific ligands leads to inhibition of cytotoxicity. Vinay Kumar and colleagues review NK cell differentiation and ontogeny, and functions of NK cells in experimental animals. Lewis Lanier discusses the role of a newly discov ered molecule, DAP 12, in KIR and other receptor-mediated signal transduction in NK cells. Eric Long describes the regulation of immune response by inhibitory receptors. Re cent studies of the role of epithelial yo T cells, in addition to specific immune regulation, in innate immune response are discussed by Wendy Havran and associates. The role ofCD4+ Thl and Th2 cells in the susceptibility and resistance to microbes, especially to protozoan, has been reviewed. Keats Nelms and colleagues provide an ac count of the molecular steps in signaling via IL-4 receptor and the biological significance of IL-4-IL-4R interactions. Richard Locksley et al. review the mechanisms, including the role of genetic factors, of the differentiation of naive T helper cells into cytokine effector cells. Thl responses confer resistance, whereas Th2 responses confer susceptibility to L. major. Jacques Louis and his colleagues discuss the effector functions of Thl cells and early events in the development of Th2 cells in murine model of L. major. Robert Coff man and Amy Beebe review the genetic control of T cell responses to L. major infection, and Edward Pearce and colleagues present data on the induction and function of Th2 cells during S. mansoni infection. The general paradigm is that intracellular bacteria elicit Th I response; however, Ste fan Kaufmann et al. have provided data, in experimental model systems, to suggest that IL-4 (Th2 response) is produced as an early response to several intracellular bacteria, fol lowed by prolonged Thl response. Both CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses are elicited in v vi Preface response to M tuberculosis. Barry Bloom and his colleagues provide new data for the role of cytotoxic T cells in resistance to M. tuberculosis. Alan Sher and colleagues emphasize the role of dendritic cells in the initiation of host resistance to T. gondii. Michael Bevan, Rafi Ahmed, Christine Biron, and their colleagues discuss immune responses to viral in fections. They present data regarding the role and dynamics of CD8+ T cells in infection with LCMV, and review endogenous innate cytokines during early viral infection and the role these cytokines play in promoting cell-mediated immunity. During the last four years, major advances have been made in understanding the im munopathogenesis of HIV infection. Edward Berger reviews the discovery of chemokine receptors (co-receptors for HIV entry and tropism), expansion of co-receptor repertoire, and the molecular mechanisms underlying HIV fusion and tropism. Bruce Walker and as sociates discuss various HIV-I-specific responses in relation to progressive and nonpro gressive HIV infection. In addition to the well-recognized role of neutralizing antibodies and cytotoxic T cells, they provide convincing evidence for the role of p24-specific T helper cells in the control of HIV infection. The SIV monkey model has provided most valuable information regarding mucosal transmission of HI V infection. Marian Neutra, us ing experimental model systems, shows local induction of specific IgG and secretory IgA response and demonstrates a role for M cells in pathogen entry. Norman Letvin and col leagues elucidate the development ofSIV-specific CD8+ T cells during primary SIV infec tion in monkeys. Rapid understanding of the nature of determinants that dictate the immunogenicity and specificity of immune response has contributed to the area of vaccine development. Douglas Fearon discusses the role of non structural determinants of antigen in regulating B cell activation mediated by B cell co-receptors CDI9, CD21, and CD22. DNA vaccines, which differ from traditional vaccines, have been shown to elicit effective T cell and B cell responses and have been instrumental in evaluating mechanisms of induction of im mune response. Margaret Liu and her colleagues review various types of DNA vaccines and the mechanisms for the generation of specific immune response. Louis Miller and as sociates discuss the status of vaccines against Falciparum malaria, and John Robbins and colleagues provide evidence for and highlight the fact that not all virulence factors are protective antigens in immunity to pertussis. This book should be of interest primarily to researchers in immunology, microbiol ogy, and vaccine development. It should also be of interest to academic pediatricians and internists specializing in infectious diseases and immunology. The editors extend thanks to Miss Nancy 1.
