Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The outcome of virus infection and pathogenesis involves a complex virus–host interaction at the cellular level. Host restrictive factors limit viral replication, while viral proteins help the virus evade the host cell's immune response. This Special Issue of Vaccines, "The Interaction of Host Cells and Virus Infection," provides a platform for research studies on virus–host interactions. This includes molecular studies using advanced technologies, in vitro models for virus–host cell interaction, and novel vaccine development platforms for viruses affecting humans and animals.
We welcome studies that develop and use in vitro models to understand virus–host cell interactions and invite studies that are focused on novel vaccine development platforms for viruses of both human and animal importance.

Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Vaccines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
