The use of intravenous human antibodies in the treatment of primary immunodeficiencies is well recognized. However, it is now evident that they also have therapeutic potential for a wide range of other clinical disorders. This book describes the use of human antibodies in the management of secondary (virus-induced) immunodeficiencies, neonatal and perinatal infections, and autoimmunity. Insight into their mechanism of action is also provided.
This 1994 volume summarizes basic scientific advances in the area of the gut immune system and the immune abnormalities relevant to gastrointestinal and liver disease.
First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
Cells do not normally live as single entities but are grouped together in specific functional and structural configurations in various tissues. Intra cellular mechanisms maintain cellular viability and provide the means necessary for their specific cellular functions. The interaction between cells is maintained by mechanisms involving extracellular signalling. Such extracellular mechanisms may include special properties of the cell surface which involve immediate cell contact, but may also represent mechanisms which act at a distance and are mediated via special secretions and/or re ceptors. Recent studies on cell-cell contact have tended to stress cell sur face components directly mediating...
Flow cytometry is a technique widely used in biological research and in diagnostic medicine. Flow cytometers are found in most biological research institutions and most clinical laboratories in larger hospitals.
From the Preface: The main purpose of this book is to acquaint clinicians with the essentials of immunoglobulin treatment. It summarizes recent clinical and experimental studies and reflects current ideas on indications for polyvalent and specific immunoglobulin preparations. The book contains original papers from many distinguished investigators which were presented at a workshop on the clinical use of intravenous immunoglobulins held at Interlaken in September 1985.
The Symposia in Immunology were organized to bring important new information on the expanding field of immunology to practicing physicians interested in the field. Highly renowned basic scientists share their results with physicians conducting clinical research and those experienced in the treatment of the respective diseases. This series of symposia is planned to cover different areas of immunology and will help to close the gap between special achievements of scientists and practicing physicians.
