Practical Immunodermatology 1st ed. 2017 Edition

May 3, 2018

[amazon_link asins=’9402409009′ template=’ProductAd’ store=’aishabano-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’1cdc8ab9-4f0b-11e8-a230-854ac8d8947c’]

This book discusses typical skin diseases from an immunological point of view, introducing the latest immunological techniques and practices.

It begins with a brief overview of the human immune system, including the basic concepts and principles as well as the general symbols used in immunology. Part Two describes the human skin as an integral part of the immune system, explaining the immunological roles of major cellular and molecular composites in the skin. Part Three illustrates typical skin diseases that have immunological involvement (immunodermatological conditions). It describes 40 skin diseases, focusing on immunological causes, pathogenesis, pattern of reaction and treatment choices and responses. The final part discusses advanced immunodiagnostics and immunotherapy in dermatology, providing detailed descriptions of immune techniques for the diagnosis of skin diseases, their principles and background, indications, requirements for sampling, test protocols, interpretation of results and trouble shooting.

This work offers insights into both the systemic immune system and the skin immune system, and integrates the information into discussions of clinical diseases, relevant immune techniques and immunological drugs. Presenting the latest advances in clinical immunology, it is an invaluable resource for dermatologists, residents and graduate students in dermatology.

Auto-Immunity Attacks the Body: Autoimmune Disease

April 30, 2018

[amazon_link asins=’1944749810′ template=’ProductAd’ store=’aishabano-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’54be50b3-4caa-11e8-b591-e3794bfabfa4′]

Auto-Immunity Attacks the Body will present progressive (acquired) diseases associated with dysfunction of the human immune system characterized by an inability to distinguish between self and nonself-components of body systems. Specifically, multiple sclerosis, graft rejection, and rheumatoid arthritis will be compared and contrasted as examples of this type of diseases. A description of the immune system will highlight the mechanisms by which immunity occurs. It will describe the symptoms of auto-immune disorders, how these symptoms change with progression of the disease, and how these symptoms lead to diagnosis. Links between damage to body systems and immune responses will be described in the context of each disease example, focusing on complications of diagnosing and treating these diseases. Commonalities and differences between the causes of auto-immune diseases will be addressed, stressing the limitations of our understanding of these systems. While there are no cures for auto-immune diseases, this book will describe available treatments for auto-immune disease patients designed to slow progression of the disease, and the importance of early diagnosis in treatment. This book will evaluate the prospects for improved treatments that target immune system functions. The book will conclude with a summary of the main points of the book in a way that connects all of the chapters and points toward the future of auto-immune disease diagnoses, treatments, and potential cures

Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Immunomodulation (Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine) 1st ed

March 2, 2018

This essential volume explores mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their potential to suppress immune-mediated inflammation. The chapters examine applications in autoimmune diseases such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis; blood cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma; and reproductive complications, specifically pre-term labor and use of MSCs in vitro and in animal models to discover methods of suppressing the causal inflammatory response. It also further defines the methodologies required to develop research on MSCs in vitro into established preclinical animal models including those which are proven replicas of autoimmunity and pre-term labor, to name but two.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Immunomodulation, part of Springer’s Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine,is an invaluable resource for researchers and clinicians working with stem cells, autoimmune disease, oncology, and reproductive medicine.

Immunotherapy for Pediatric Malignancies 1st ed. 2018 Edition

February 23, 2018

This book provides a comprehensive overview of current immunotherapy strategies, and how these may be applicable to childhood cancers. The first part of the book reviews how the immune system recognizes cancer, and the various escape mechanisms allowing tumour growth. The importance of the tumor microenvironment and the challenges this may present to achieving effective immunotherapy are discussed. Monoclonal antibodies, cellular, cytokine and vaccine therapies are all comprehensively reviewed, with particular focus on their potential application to pediatric cancers. Practical aspects of delivering such therapies to children, likely toxicities and potential biomarkers are considered. Finally, consideration is given to how, in the longer term, such therapies may be combined with conventional therapies such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Edited by two distinguished pediatric oncologists with a collection of chapters from the most authoritative experts in cancer immunotherapy, this is an indispensable volume for pediatric oncologists and physicians working in childhood cancer care.
