      Encyclopedia of Immunobiology, Second Edition, Five Volume Set covers the full range of Immunology, presenting topics logically and making extensive use of "hot links" to refer the reader to related content. The new edition is not just an update of the original title; it vastly expands fields like immunotherapy, immunity to viral infection, vaccine development, inflammatory responses, and high throughput analyses. Containing 350 chapters written by world-leading experts, this edition integrates all concepts coherently and logically to paint a comprehensive picture of the evolving field of Immunology.The immune system, complex and multi-layered, has evolved to differentiate between "self" and foreign pathogens, providing protection against infections while dysregulation can cause diseases like autoimmunity, allergies, and inflammatory disorders. This understanding has led to numerous therapeutic interventions crucial for human health improvement.

      Comorbidities in Inflammatory Arthritis, Volume 18 in Elsevier’s Handbook for Systemic Autoimmune Diseases series, provides an extensive review of the most recent research on various comorbidities and EAMs associated with inflammatory arthritis. The book emphasizes early detection, which is crucial for improving patient quality of life and survivability outcomes, as many adults with inflammatory arthritis also suffer from other chronic conditions. The book's chapters cover comorbidities and EAMs in both early and late disease stages.They delve into the mechanisms behind the development of these conditions and examine the impact of new treatment strategies specific to inflammatory arthritis and related diseases, including cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, metabolic bone disease, infection, neoplasia, respiratory disease, gastrointestinal disorders, kidney issues, mental health conditions, and neurological diseases. This book serves as a valuable reference for researchers and clinicians focused on inflammatory arthritis and its associated conditions.

      Metabolites as Signals in Immunity and Inflammation describes the revolution in the definition of the word metabolism, highlighting changes in thinking about the whole field of immunology. These changes occur thanks to breakthrough experiments in basic research, and with the help of new technologies that allow for the testing of immunology hypotheses. In recent years, a substantial number of findings have been made around immunometabolism. What is emerging is a complex interplay between metabolic reprogramming and immunity, which is providing an extra dimension to our understanding of the immune system in health and disease.

      Endotoxin in Critical Illness intricately explores the theme of endotoxin and sepsis through the lenses of basic, clinical, and translational science. This work consolidates and synthesizes novel clinical insights and groundbreaking scientific discoveries into one comprehensive resource on endotoxic septic shock and sheds light on cutting-edge approaches in treatment. Beginning with a historical journey, the book traces the evolution of understanding from ancient concepts to modern molecular insights. It covers the physiological aspects of endotoxin sensitivity, tolerance, and human response variation. The crucial role of the gut microbiome in critical illness serves as a translational link between foundational science and clinical implications, and the complex language of bacterial communication is introduced, merging basic science with potential translational applications. In the clinical arena, chapters cover the critical role of endotoxin in septic shock, trauma, and its relevance in COVID-19, providing a translational bridge between laboratory findings and real-world clinical scenarios. The historical context of anti-endotoxin drug development is revisited, emphasizing the translational challenges faced in bridging basic science discoveries to clinical applications. The discussion on quantifying endotoxin concentration as well as the exploration of therapeutic rationale and clinical experiences with endotoxin removal therapy serve as a culmination of basic understanding translated into practical applications. The book concludes by contemplating the complexity of sepsis and acknowledging the challenges in achieving personalized medicine and underscoring the dynamic nature of the translational journey. In essence, this comprehensive exploration provides clinicians, researchers, and scientists with a holistic understanding of endotoxin and sepsis and potential advancements in patient care.

      Immunological Aspects of Preterm Birth: Phenotypes of Preterm Birth, Immune Mechanisms, and Pathway Forward bridges reproductive immunology of preterm birth to subtypes, phenotypes, and bedside prevention and treatment. The book reviews the role of the different immune mechanisms during pregnancy that lead to preterm birth, along with the fetal programming effects that are connected to maternal immune activation. In addition, it discusses immune cells and their products and cytokines and chemokines as central for the success of the pregnancy.While our knowledge on the role of immune cells and the inflammatory process in preterm birth has grown exponentially in the last 10 years, connecting basic science to clinical science and the development of new therapeutics has not progressed as rapidly. This book assists researchers in understanding the basic immunologic mechanisms and inflammatory processes associated with preterm birth and fills an urgent need for the development of therapeutics in this space.
