Abstract: | Summary. Over the past years, numerous research groups have discovered various strategies that herpesviruses use to hide themselves from recognition by the immune system of their hosts. The current review gives a summary of this research, with emphasis on the mechanisms by which herpesvirus-infected cells escape from elimination by complement, phagocytes, cytotoxic T-lymphocytes and/or natural killer cells.
