    • Muneeb U Rehman + 3 more
    • English
    A Molecular Approach to Immunogenetics, Immunogenetics: A Molecular and Clinical Overview, Volume One provides readers with an exclusive, updated overview on the scientific knowledge, achievements and findings in the field of immunogenetics. The book presents readily available, updated information on the molecular and clinical aspects of immunogenetics, from origin and development to clinical applications and future prospects. The breadth of information goes from basics to developments, clinical applications and future prospects. The book's most attractive attribute is its academic and clinical amalgamation that covers both the theoretical and practical aspects of immunogenetics. An additional feature of the book is a special chapter on viral genetics that covers COVID-19. Above all, the book contains chapters that discuss immunogenetics in relation to pharmaco-genomics and immune-toxicology.

  • Translational Autoimmunity, Volume 1

    Etiology of Autoimmune Diseases
    • 1st Edition
    • Nima Rezaei
    • English
    Translational Autoimmunity: Etiology of Autoimmune Diseases is the first volume of the Translational Immunology book series. To attain its purpose as a detailed translational step to tackle autoimmunity, this volume sufficiently addresses basic questions on how the immune system is designed to distinguish self from nonself. It discusses the known mechanisms that lead to the maintenance of self-tolerance, presents potential triggers and malfunctions that impede normal immune processes, and demonstrates how the immune system induces an autoreactive state that results in the recognition of self-antigens seen in autoimmune conditions.

  • Cancer Immunology and Immunotherapy

    Volume 1 of Delivery Strategies and Engineering Technologies in Cancer Immunotherapy
    • 1st Edition
    • Mansoor M. Amiji + 1 more
    • English
    Delivery Technologies for Immuno-Oncology: Volume 1: Delivery Strategies and Engineering Technologies in Cancer Immunotherapy examines the challenges of delivering immuno-oncology therapies. Immuno-oncology (IO) is a growing field of medicine at the interface of immunology and cancer biology leading to development of novel therapeutic approaches, such as chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) and immune checkpoint blockade antibodies, that are clinically approved approaches for cancer therapy. Although currently approved IO approaches have shown tremendous promise for select types of cancers, broad application of IO strategies could even further improve the clinical success, especially for diseases such as pancreatic cancer, brain tumors where the success of IO so far has been limited. Nanotechnology-based targeted delivery strategies could improve the delivery efficiency of IO agents as well as provide additional avenues for novel therapeutic and vaccination strategies. Additionally, a number of locally-administered immunogenic scaffolds and therapeutic strategies, such as the use of STING agonist, could benefit from rationally designed biomaterials and delivery approaches. Delivery Technologies for Immuno-Oncology: Volume 1: Delivery Strategies and Engineering Technologies in Cancer Immunotherapy creates a comprehensive treaty that engages the scientific and medical community who are involved in the challenges of immunology, cancer biology, and therapeutics with possible solutions from the nanotechnology and drug delivery side.

  • Trichinella and Trichinellosis

    • 1st Edition
    • Fabrizio Bruschi
    • English
    　 Trichinella and Trichinellosis provides an up-to-date account of the nematode Trichinella spp., including infections and diseases caused by this parasite in both animals and humans. This book will fill the long gap in time during which an exhaustive monograph on this subject has been missing in the international literature. The chapters have been written by the most prolific researchers in the world on the different aspects of Trichinella and trichinellosis. This book serves as an original resource for research on Trichinella and trichinellosis, exploring cutting-edge advances on such parasites and the infections they cause. This book will be a valuable resource for students, biologists, epidemiologists, veterinarians, physicians, and scientists involved in the study of the parasites of the Trichinella genus and their related diseases. It will be particularly helpful for those who are beginning their research in this fascinating field.

    • Spanish
    Novena edición que ofrece una aproximación bien ilustrada y cuidadosamente estructurada que incluye todos los conceptos básicos y clínicos necesarios para la preparación de los cursos de la especialidad. La obra ha sido editada y redactada por expertos docentes e investigadores, por lo que proporciona un contenido coherente y de vanguardia que vincula el laboratorio y la práctica clínica. Presenta un contenido reorganizado que muestra la inmunología en el orden en que se suele enseñar y aprender, integrando mejor la inmunología básica y la clínica. Aborda nuevos temas, como las células linfocíticas innatas, los tratamientos basados en anticuerpos y la ingeniería de anticuerpos, la inmunidad innata y sus componentes, la genética de las enfermedades con base inmunitaria, la medicina personalizada y los fármacos inmunoterapéuticos para el tratamiento del cáncer. Con un formato fácil de usar y codificado con colores, incluye cuadros con conceptos clave, diagramas explicativos y casi 200 fotografías para ayudar a comprender y memorizar de forma visual los conceptos más difíciles. Además ofrece resúmenes de capítulo, cuadros de razonamiento crítico y preguntas basadas en casos clínicos que facilitan una revisión rápida y eficaz para la preparación de los exámenes. Explica los componentes básicos del sistema inmunitario (células, órganos y moléculas receptoras principales), así como la activación y las acciones de la respuesta inmunitaria, especialmente en el contexto clínico y proporciona la información clínica más actualizada, incluidos los más recientes abordajes clínicos de la inmunología del cáncer, el trasplante, la autoinmunidad y la hipersensibilidad, entre otros.
