Inflammatory Diseases of Blood Vessels“/b> Inflammatory Diseases of Blood Vessels Second Edition Inflammatory Diseases of Blood Vessels provides a comprehensive overview of the science and clinical consequences of vascular inflammation in health and disease. In recent years, considerable progress has been made in understanding different forms of vasculitis. Investigation of pathogenesis of vascular inflammation has led to improved treatments and outcomes. Surgical and transplant procedures have improved in parallel with medical therapies. These areas are extensively examined in this new edition. Inflammatory Diseases of Blood Vessels is an excellent resource for a broad readership, including clinicians, investigators and their support teams in numerous specialties e.g. rheumatology, immunology, cardiology, cardiovascular surgery, pulmonary medicine, nephrology, pathology, vascular biology, embryology and imaging.
This book, the third volume of the new series 'Current Directions in Autoimmunity', is the first one to exclusively focus on one disease. Written by experts in genetics and immunobiology, the articles reflect the complexity and multiple facets of the disease process but also show their convergence to a better understanding of pathogenetic mechanisms and the evolving clinical applications. The models and concepts described in this volume have implications for studies of other inflammatory diseases and are of interest not only for clinical and basic scientists devoted to the study of rheumatoid arthritis but for investigators of autoimmune diseases in general.

This book presents an excellent review of the mechanisms underlying the phenomena of autoimmunity. It provides not only an update of the field's state of the art, but also presents new concepts in the fundamentals and treatment of autoimmune disorders. The finest example of the new approach is understanding the nature of autoimmunity and the treatment of autoimmune diseases is the introductory article. The author opposes the current dogma that autoimmune disorders should be treated with immunosuppressors, and postulates rather the activation of the immune system, which may lead to redirecting the immune response to the protective, Th-2 type of immunity. A series of articles deals with several aspects of the subject, such as the generation, progression, and regulation of autoimmune phenomena. The roles of pathogens, apoptosis, cytokines, complement components, and regulatory T cells are described, as well as the association between the immune and neurohormonal systems in major autoimmune disorders. This is not a textbook, but it is highly recommended for clinicians and university workers, and as supplementary reading for lecturers and students.
