Dynamics of the Il-2 Cytokine Network and T-cell Proliferation

This book adds to a intensively investigated question of immunological research. How do regulatory T cells mediate their function to ensure tolerance against self-antigen? The author analyzes the interaction via the cytokine interleukin 2 between T helper cells, which mediate immune responses, and regulatory T cells. Since both cell types depend on interleukin 2 to mediate their functions, competition for interleukin 2 is likely. A mathematical model is developed to describe the interaction. This model focuses on the interleukin 2 receptor dynamics on helper and regulatory T cells and the extracellular interleukin 2 diffusion. The interleukin 2 receptor dynamics is governed mainly by an auto...

Flow Cytometry and Cell Sorting

The analysis and sorting of large numbers of cells with a fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) was first achieved some 30 years ago. Since then, this technology has been rapidly developed and is used today in many laboratories. A Springer Lab Manual Review of the First Edition: "This is a most useful volume which will be a welcome addition for personal use and also for laboratories in a wide range of disciplines. Highly recommended." CYTOBIOS

Stochastic Regulation of the Interleukin-4 Gene

Stochastic Regulation of the Interleukin-4 Gene

This book focuses on the expression variability of highly regulated genes in multi-cellular organisms through a multidisciplinary approach combining quantitative measurements and mathematical modeling. For this purpose, the cytokine gene Interleukin-4 (IL-4) in murine type-2 (Th2) lymphocytes was chosen as prototypical model system of an inducible gene regulated at the epigenetic and transductional level. As many cytokines, IL-4 is expressed in a probabilistic manner, but the underlying molecular mechanisms behind this phenomenon are still unresolved. Through an iterative process of quantitative measurements and mathematical analysis, the author develops a computational model able to predict...

Shaping of Human Immune System and Metabolic Processes by Viruses and Microorganisms

Recent advances in the understanding of microbiota in health and diseases are presented in this special issue of Frontiers in Immunology and Frontiers in Microbiology as well as their impact on the immune system that can lead to the development of pathologies. Potential perspectives and biomarkers are also addressed. We offer this Research Topic involving 64 articles and 501 authors to discuss recent advances regarding: 1. An overview of the human microbiota and its capacity to interact with the human immune system and metabolic processes, 2. New developments in understanding the immune system’s strategies to respond to infections and escape strategies used by pathogens to counteract such responses, 3. The link between the microbiota and pathology in terms of autoimmunity, allergy, cancers and other diseases.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

The purpose of this book is to provide up-to-date, interesting, and thought-provoking perspectives on various aspects of research into current and potential treatments for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This book features 17 chapters, with contributions from numerous countries (e.g. UK, USA, Canada, Japan, Sweden, Turkey, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovakia), including chapters from internationally recognized leaders in rheumatology research. It is anticipated that Rheumatoid Arthritis - Treatment will provide both a useful reference and source of potential areas of investigation for research scientists working in the field of RA and other inflammatory arthropathies.

Game of Drones

Drohnen sind unbemannte Flugobjekte, deren Größen so unterschiedlich sind wie ihr Aussehen und ihre Nutzung. Eingesetzt werden sie für unterschiedlichste zivile Zwecke: u.a. um schwer zugängliche Gebiete zu erreichen, zur Kontrolle von Grenzen, Überwachung, Datensammlung sowie in der Landwirtschaft und im Dienstleistungssektor. Sie liefern Künstler*innen, Fotograf*innen und Filmemacher*innen eindrucksvolle Aufnahmen und haben die Bildästhetik der Gegenwart revolutioniert. Drohnen gelten aber auch als die wichtigste Kriegstechnologie seit der Erfindung der Atombombe. Gegenwärtig sind Drohnen noch keine autonom operierenden Systeme, in Kombination mit Künstlicher Intelligenz können s...
