  • Microbes, Microbial Metabolism and Mucosal Immunity

    An Overview
    • 1st Edition
    • Tanima Bose
    • English
    Microbes, Microbial Metabolism and Mucosal Immunity: An Overview presents a concise and well-vetted treatise on the study of microbiome and microbial metabolites. This volume is up-to-date with the most recent developments from the last decade. It encompasses the interaction of immunity and microbes — and their metabolites — from different mucosal organs including gastrointestinal system, lung, oral cavity, eye. Along with the efficiency of the immune system in inhibiting the growth and proliferation of microbes, the volume discusses how the mediators of the immune system can be targeted to develop therapies.This book presents the latest methods, gives broad and systematic coverage of most mucosal systems and diseases, and takes a fresh perspective that looks at the functional aspects of change in the microbiome. The study of microbiome and microbial metabolites and their roles in host mucosal immunology is a rapidly developing area of research. One major way in which the microbiome influences the host is through altered metabolism. Metabolites, readily available to the host, engender significant consequences. Microbial metabolites have been shown to impact the disease processes in both proximal and distal organs, including the brain in several neurocognitive disorders.

    • English
    Regulatory T Cells and Autoimmune Diseases addresses recent findings concerning the role of Tregs in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases as well as their therapeutic applications. In particular, this book deals with various Treg-based mechanisms that can lead to autoimmune disease and covers different aspects linking Tregs with autoimmune mechanisms involved in disease development by discussing animal models and human studies.This book specifically focuses on Treg-based therapeutics and their targets to manage all known autoimmune rheumatic, central nervous system, bowel, liver, thyroid, kidney, myopathic, skin, blood and blood vessel, and eye diseases and aims to provide a must-have reference for designing therapeutic strategies to treat these autoimmune diseases. Additionally, this book covers vaccine-induced effects on the functioning of Tregs and development of CAR Treg therapy for autoimmune diseases and concludes with current challenges and future prospects of Treg-based therapeutics. This book is carefully designed to meet the requirements of both basic and advanced researchers in the area and provide new dimensions and insight into regulatory T cells’ role in autoimmune disease pathogenesis and therapy.
