    • The Immunology of the Domestic Ruminants

      Cattle, Sheep, and Goats
      • 1st Edition
      • Ian R. Tizard
      • English
      The Immunology of Domestic Ruminants: Cattle, Sheep, and Goats provides a thorough examination of the immune systems of these animals. It explores their normal immune functions and their roles in combating infectious and parasitic diseases, chronic inflammatory conditions, and immunodeficiency disorders. The book incorporates new data from the bovine genome project and highlights significant breed differences. Both innate and adaptive immunity are systematically covered, offering insights into basic and applied aspects of bovine immunology. In addition to detailing the immunology of major bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases in cattle, the book reviews bovine vaccines and emphasizes the importance nutrition.This essential resource caters to professionals in large animal research and practice, providing comprehensive information on the immunology of domestic cattle, sheep, and goats.

    • 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.
