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.

      Applications of Nanobiotechnology for Neglected Tropical Diseases describes recent advances in nanobiotechnology that can be applied to reducing the global disease burden of neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). The book explores the application of nanotechnology on the development of safe, effective, and reliable tools to prevent, diagnose, and treat NTDs. Furthermore, Applications of Nanobiotechnology for Neglected Tropical Diseases includes multidisciplinary content, combining knowledge from biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, material sciences, pharmacology, and pharmaceutics. The book is divided into three main parts, each outlining one major type of approach: (1) nano-based approaches for prevention, (2) nano-diagnostics and detection, and (3) nanotherapeutics. Each part contains chapters that delve into the different applications of the type of approach being presented in that part. A discussion of other approaches against NTD follows these three parts. This book is remarkable in its ability to encompass and thoroughly explain the latest techniques in nanobiotechnology, from basic research to patient-oriented investigation.

      Reproductive Immunology: Basic Concepts gives a holistic insight into the understanding of the complex interactions between the maternal immune system and the fetal/placental unit necessary for the success of pregnancy. This interaction is critical for the support of the human fetal semiallograft and the protection against infections. The book covers various topics such as B cells, macrophages, T cells, discussion on fetal signals and their impact on maternal reproductive cells such as endometrial cells, mast cells, and the role of fetal Hofbauer cells, the immune regulatory role of glucorticoids, and many other novel topics within the field of reproductive immunology. Edited and written by experts in the field, this book introduces the up-to-date knowledge of the role of the immune system during pregnancy and provides the necessary background to understand pregnancy complications associated with alterations in the functioning of the immune system. The book provides a complete discussion on the immunological aspects of pregnancy and serves as a great tool for research scientists, students, reproductive immunologists and OBGYNs.

      Awareness among clinicians about PIDs, which consist of more than 400 different entities, plays an important role in ensuring that patients receive a timely diagnosis. Furthermore, clinicians who are educated about PIDs can give their patients access to optimal management of their condition, thus helping the patient achieve a better quality-of-life and long-term prognosis. Inborn Errors of Immunity: A Practical Guide provides the most up-to-date information for busy students, nurses, clinical residents, practicing physicians, and even basic researchers. Readers will benefit from a well-structured breakdown of complicated PID diseases, including approaches to their clinical signs/symptoms and immunologic/laborato... findings.
