Immunological aspects of viral uveitis. 1976

A C Martenet

The study of the immunological aspects of viral uveitis deals with virology as well as ophthalmology. Viral uveitis can be the result of direct invasion of the uvea by viral particles, or possibly by immune complexes, and even autoimmune reactions can play a role. The diagnosis will be made, besides the rare finding of viruses, by measuring circulating antibodies in serum and aqueous. The evolution of the disease and its therapy raise many questions involving the humoral and the cellular immune systems.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007109 Immunity Nonsusceptibility to the invasive or pathogenic effects of foreign microorganisms or to the toxic effect of antigenic substances. Immune Process,Immune Response,Immune Processes,Immune Responses,Process, Immune,Response, Immune
D007111 Immunity, Cellular Manifestations of the immune response which are mediated by antigen-sensitized T-lymphocytes via lymphokines or direct cytotoxicity. This takes place in the absence of circulating antibody or where antibody plays a subordinate role.
