      • Some pathogens avoid the immune system by hiding within the cells of the host, a process referred to as intracellular pathogenesis. Other pathogens invade the body by changing the non-essential epitopes on their surface rapidly, while keeping the essential epitopes hidden.

  3. Every 2–3 years, a variant arises with mutations that allow the virus to evade neutralization by antibodies in the population; other mutations affect epitopes that are recognized by T cells and, in particular, CD8 T cells, so that cells infected with the mutant virus also escape destruction.

  4. Here we highlight emerging themes from the recent literature, from evasion mechanisms by which pathogens avoid antimicrobial molecules, to the ability of pathogens to directly modulate innate immune signal transduction pathways, and immune receptor localization and cytokine secretion.

  6. Aug 31, 2023 · Antibodies, such as IgG, IgA, and IgM, can bind to bacterial adhesins, pili, and capsules and in this way block their attachment to host cells. c. IgG and IgM can also activate the classical complement pathway providing all of its associated benefits.
