Description

Allergic Asthma Immunopathogenesis: Immunopathology of the Allergic Asthma presents a new glance to the allergic asthma pathophysiology by focusing on the immunopathogenesis and allergo-inflammation mechanisms of asthma and cell signaling pathways that can be used for various research purposes, including the design of anti-asthma treatment and target therapy for scientists and researchers. As asthma is a chronic, complicated airway disease whose mortality and morbidity rates have increased worldwide, some common treatments for asthma cannot control it nor even prevent simple inflammation and relieve shortness of breath. Thus, understanding its molecular pathways and pathophysiology is required in order to better understand the disease.

Key features

  • Covers new molecular pathophysiology mechanisms and cell signaling pathways in pathogenesis of allergic asthma that have been introduced in recent research
  • Discusses immunologic basis of the allergy and hyperresponsiveness
  • Includes results of recent research focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of allergic asthma

Readership

Researchers and scientists interested on pulmonology, allergy, and clinical immunology, Pulmonologists and subspecialists on allergy and immunology, Pharmaceutical industry to design new projects in R&D sections and produce new drugs, recognizing new pathways to produce target therapy

Review quotes

"This book is a brief review of immunopathogenesis of allergic asthma from basics to management. It also describes both traditional and new treatments....It starts with an introductory chapter on allergies and hyperresponsiveness and then introduces other players of immune systems and their roles in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma. It also dedicates a chapter on treatment....This book is a concise review of immunopathogenesis of allergic asthma....Although the chapters are short, the book covers all the key educational teaching points in this brief review. This collection is a valuable resource for those who are searching for a quick reference on the subject."—©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Massoud Mahmoudi, DO, PhD (University of California San Francisco)
