This book was released on 2022-12-19 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our immune system defends us against infection by employing multiple lines of defense. The relevance of the immune response in human health, disease prevention, and vaccinations becomes evident when the immune system is compromised as in the case of pathogenic infections or autoimmune diseases. The reader will gain a fundamental understanding of the essential principles of immunology, such as how our immune system recognizes/fights infectious agents, how our body differentiates between foreign and self-cells/molecules, and how the memory from previous infections aids in a faster and more effective immune response. The book is divided into 17 chapters, providing an overview of the immune system and its components, including its organs and cells. Chapters on the major histocompatibility complex, the complement system, hypersensitivity and tolerance, antibody diversity through DNA rearrangements, and autoimmune diseases are included in the book which further broadens the understanding of this very complex system of our body. Chapters on transplantation immunology and vaccines provide a perspective on the application of these immunological concepts and will be of great interest to readers. Key features of the book: Simple, direct, and lucid language Comprehensive coverage of concepts for better understanding Well-labeled illustrations, flowcharts, and tables for enhanced learning Every chapter is followed up with a detailed summary and questionnaire A detailed glossary for users to know the right words Chapters contributed/reviewed by experienced experts in this field The book provides broad, accessible, and up-to-date information about immunological perspectives to biotechnologists, biomedical scientists, biochemists, molecular biologists, and students from various streams of life sciences, including zoology, biotechnology, and microbiology, as well as instant access to a wealth of information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cellular and Molecular Immunology takes a comprehensive yet straightforward approach to the latest developments in this active and fast-changing field. Drs. Abul K. Abbas, Andrew H. Lichtman, and Shiv Pillai present sweeping updates in this new edition to cover antigen receptors and signal transduction in immune cells, mucosal and skin immunity, cytokines, leukocyte-endothelial interaction, and more. This reference is the up-to-date and readable textbook you need to master the complex subject of immunology. Recognize the clinical relevance of the immunology through discussions of the implications of immunologic science for the management of human disease. Grasp the details of experimental observations that form the basis for the science of immunology at the molecular, cellular, and whole-organism levels and draw the appropriate conclusions. Stay abreast of the latest advances in immunology and molecular biology through extensive updates that cover cytokines, innate immunity, leukocyte-endothelial interactions, signaling, costimulation, and more. Visualize immunologic processes more effectively through a completely revised art program with redrawn figures, a brighter color palette, and more 3-dimensional art. Find information more quickly and easily through a reorganized chapter structure and a more logical flow of material.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive basis for a complete course in modern cellular and molecular immunology, this is the ideal textbook for undergraduate science students and clinicians. Arranged around a 'map' of the immune system, each chapter focuses on a different topic. The information is presented in alogical order and diverse threads are drawn together to illustrate the emerging principles of the subject. Starting from the basic principles, the book builds up a sophisticated and fascinating picture of this complex but exciting subject, explaining the latest thinking and indicating areas of hot debate. Illustrated with more than 300 two-colour drawings and halftones, the lively design incorporates asummary diagram for each chapter highlighting the key points of discussion. An invaluable overview of the subject that will also allow researchers to place their experimental results in a wider context.

Book excerpt: Immunology is the science of immune systems. Some widely studied aspects of this field include immune deficiency, functioning of the immune system, transplant rejection, etc. The nature of the components of the immune system is mainly cellular. Immunology can be divided into classical immunology, developmental immunology, cancer immunology, theoretical immunology and reproductive immunology. This textbook is a complete source of knowledge on the present status of this important field. For someone with an interest and eye for detail, this book covers the most significant topics in the field of immunology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The initial impetus to create a work combining aspects of cel­ lular immunology with their clinical applications grew from the ed­ itors' discussions of the area's needs with many of the leaders in the field over a period of time. From the nucleus of ideas that emerged, we have here attempted to create a unified and inte­ grated coverage of the rapidly growing field of cellular immunology research and to trace out-from what seems at times a genuine plethora of important new findings-the many and often impor­ tant clinical implications. Because of this approach, the chapters of Clinical Cellular Im­ munology attempt to be more than critical reviews of research and clinical data, going beyond analysis to synthesize working hypotheses about the functional meaning of cellular immunological phenomena and their likely clinical significance. To accomplish this undertaking, the text begins first with a consid­ eration of the molecular aspects of antigen recognition (Luderer and Harvey) and of the ensuing regulatory program initiation (Fathman). Then, the functional subsets oflymphocytes as they in­ teract to produce and control the developing immune response are explored in detail (Sigel et a1.), followed by a unique analytical dis­ section of the action of immunosuppressive agents on the sundry inductive and regulatory immunologic pathways (Sigel et al.). A majority of the data and conclusions drawn by the authors in the previous chapters arise from work on murine systems, al­ though wherever appropriate, human data has been introduced.
