The Neuroendocrine Immune Network
This informative publication updates the study of interaction of the nervous and endocrine systems with the immune system in the body. It describes the anatomical basis of these interactions, reviewing the innervation of lymphoid tissue and mast cells. The book discusses the effect of the endocrine system on immune function, including the relation of sex to the immune response. Emphasis is given to opioids, substance P, neurotensin, vasoactive intestinal peptide, somatostatin and cholecystokinin. Also addressed is the immunoregulatory effect of leukotrienes and platelet-activating factors. Scrutinized within are stress as an aspect of neuro-immune interactions, and the central role of the hypothalamus in this context. The book reviews the eye and the gastrointestinal tract with respect to the coordination of the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems in serving these organs. This work is of particular value to those in immunology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, and developmental biology.
Clinical Pancreatology
Most patients suffering from pancreatic diseases are managed bygeneral internists, gastroenterologists and/or surgeons innon-specialized centers. Basic and clinical research inpancreatology is continuously leading to changes in the managementof pancreatic diseases, but these advances are applied to theclinical practice almost exclusively in specialized centers byspecialized groups. The books and journals currently available are directed atpancreatologists and the information does not reach most generalclinicians and surgeons who treat patients suffering frompancreatic diseases. The aim of this book is to provide practisinggastroenterologists and surgeons with clear information regardingthe diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic diseases.
Atlas of Exocrine Pancreatic Tumors
The classification of tumors is important for understanding tumor histogenesis, for predicting prognosis, for differential diagnosis, and for recommending appropriate therapy. Since 1836, when pancreatic cancer was first described, progress has been made in pancreatic cancer morphology, and a number of classifications have been proposed. All of these classifications are mainly based on morphological characteristics. Some are too detailed to be of practical use while others are more pragmatic. Some of the inherent problems in the previous classifications included difficulties in obtaining an adequate number of pan creatic tumors for examination and insufficient clinical data and follow-up.
