2005 (1st ed),
432 pages, 10 illus, $145 list
Topics covered in this volume include etiology and pathogenesis, genetics,
mechanisms, tolerance, diagnostics, the role of hormones, infection, animal
models, individual autoimmune diseases, therapy, and the art and science of
predicting autoimmunity.
Kishore: Target Pattern Recognition in Innate Immunity
By Uday Kishore
2009 (1st ed), 222 pages, 35 illus,
$159 list
Target
pattern recognition in innate immunity is responsible for the immediate,
usually protective, responses shown against invading microorganisms, and it is
the principal feature of self and non-self recognition by virtue of the
recognition of structures on the microbial pathogens, which are not found on
host cells. This is an area that has been very actively researched, over
approximately the past 12 years, and therefore this volume provides a timely
comprehensive, and up to date, summary of the types and range of cell surface,
intracellular, and secreted, host proteins involved in the recognition of
microbial products, and of the protective mechanisms triggered as a result of
the recognition events.
Kotb: Superantigens: Molecular
Basis for Their Role in Human Diseases
By Malak Kotb and John D Fraser
2007 (1st ed), 292 pages, $130 list
Superantigens is the first comprehensive examination of these fascinating proteins
ever published. A team of internationally respected researchers covers the
basic molecular mechanisms of superantigen action,
their structure and function, and their role in human diseases.
Liapis: Pathology of Solid Organ Transplantation
By Helen Liapis
2010 (1st ed), 480 pages, 300 illus, $309 list
The
book focuses on the pathology of transplantation in the following organs:
kidney, liver, lungs, heart, pancreas and small intestine. An introductory
section addresses common entities that may complicate all transplant recipients
such as infections, post-transplant lymphoproliferative
disease and graft versus host disease, followed by 6 sections with detailed
manifestations of rejection in each organ. This comprehensive, well-illustrated
book serves the needs and meets the requirements of pathologists in training
and those practicing in centers with limited volume of transplant biopsies in
daily practice.
