  • MIF Family Cytokines in Innate Immunity and Homeostasis

    Edited by Richard Bucala, Jürgen Bernhagen ...
    Series series Progress in Inflammation Research
    The role of the cytokine macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in the immune response and in the immunopathogenesis of different inflammatory, autoimmune, and infectious disorders is now well-established. Recent studies continue to broaden considerably the role of MIF in both normal physiology and pathology, which range from such diverse areas as oncogenesis, metabolism, and cellular stress ...

  • Anti-Idiotypes, Receptors, and Molecular Mimicry

    Edited by D. Scott Linthicum, Nadir R. Farid ...
    Series series Medicine (R0)
    Here is an up-to-date review of important new methods and results in anti-idiotypes, receptors, and molecular mimicry. It begins with a discussion of the theoretical background of the anti-idiotypic network, it's role in the regulation of immune response, and the physical characteristics of anti-idiotypic antibodies. It then goes on to explore many exciting applications in such areas as insulin ... Read more

  • The Inflammasomes

    Edited by Isabelle Couillin, Virginie Pétrilli, Fabio Martinon ...
    Series series Progress in Inflammation Research
    The inflammasome was first described in 2002 as a molecular complex activating proinflammatory caspases and therefore regulating the maturation and biological activities of cytokines such as IL-1 and IL-18. This finding was substantiated by the identification of several mutations in the cias1 gene, encoding the human NLRP3 protein, responsible for several autoinflammatory disorders such as the ...

  • Autophagy Networks in Inflammation

    Edited by Maria Chiara Maiuri, Daniela De Stefano ...
    Series series Progress in Inflammation Research
    Autophagy principally serves an adaptive function to protect organisms against diverse human pathologies, including cancer and neurodegeneration. Recent developments using in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo models show the involvement of the autophagy pathway in immunity and inflammation. Moreover, direct interactions between autophagy proteins and immune signalling molecules have also been ... Read more

  • IL-17, IL-22 and Their Producing Cells: Role in Inflammation and Autoimmunity

    Edited by Valérie Quesniaux, Bernhard Ryffel, Franco Di Padova ...
    Series series Progress in Inflammation Research
    The knowledge of Th17 cells and other cell populations which secrete IL-17A, and/or IL-22 has expanded tremendously since the publication of the first edition “Th17 Cells: Role in Inflammation and Autoimmune Disease” in 2008. The present volume has been completely revised with the addition of new chapters on the IL-17 receptor family and signaling, and an in-depth review of IL-22 and innate ... Read more

  • TH17 Cells in Health and Disease

    Edited by Shuiping Jiang ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    “About 25 years ago, Mosmann & Coffman introduced the TH1 / TH2 paradigm of T helper cell differentiation which helped explain many aspects of adaptive immunity from eliminating intracellular versus extracellular pathogens to induction of different types of tissue inflammation. However, TH1 / TH2 paradigm could not adequately explain development of certain inflammatory responses which provided ... Read more

  • Proteases and Their Receptors in Inflammation

    Edited by Nathalie Vergnolle, Michel Chignard ...
    Series series Progress in Inflammation Research
    Proteases are everywhere from prokaryotes to eukaryotes, from virus to bacteria and in all human tissues, playing a role in many biological functions. Among these functions, the inflammatory reaction is of particular interest. In inflamed tissues, proteases can have a microbial and/or host origin and are involved not only in tissue remodeling, but also in specific signaling to resident or ... Read more

  • Human Fungal Pathogens

    Edited by Oliver Kurzai ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Whereas plant and insect infections are commonly caused by fungi, only a small minority of the vast diversity of fungal species is pathogenic to humans. Despite this, fungal infections cause considerable morbidity and mortality worldwide. This volume is dedicated to the biology, clinical presentation and management of invasive fungal infections. Major pathogenic fungi are introduced by world ... Read more

  • Hematopoietic Stem Cell Biology

    Edited by Motonari Kondo ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    In the summer of 1988, my developmental biology professor announced to the class that hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) had finally been purified. Somehow, I never forgot the professor’s words. When I started working in Dr. Irv Weissman’s labo- tory at Stanford as a postdoctoral fellow, I realized that the findings mentioned by the professor were from Weissman’s laboratory and had been published in ...
