It has been recognized that viruses can induce neuronal damage by a variety of mechanisms. This volume summarizes the various ways that neurons can degenerate under the influence of viral infection, ranging from acute necrosis and virus-induced apoptosis to chronic damage in persistent infections. The mechanisms of neuronal latency are dealt with as well. The volume also includes chapters that review the chronic damage caused by viral proteins that interfere with differentiated functions of the neuron, including signalling by neurotransmitters and signal transduction by trophic factors. Other...
