This new companion to Hochberg et al.'s Rheumatology masterwork provides new insights into the causes, detection and therapy of this challenging disease. In this state-of-the-art resource, you'll find ‘one stop' coverage of all the latest scientific and clinical developments in SLE: new concepts in epidemiology, disease activity measures and outcomes; new concepts in immunoregulation, genetic and pathogenic mechanisms; new understanding and novel presentation of the processes of tissue/organ damage; comprehensive coverage of clinical features; and the very latest concepts in treatment. Provides the very latest understanding of the pathogenesis of SLE. Distills current understanding of the ...
Idiotypes documents the proceedings of an International Conference on Idiotypes held in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, October 20-23, 1985. The aims of the conference were to gather active investigators in the study of idiotypes; to assess progress in the field; and to explore directions for future research. The papers presented at the conference cover a wide range of subjects. Several papers deal with defining protein and DNA sequences which determine idiotypes. Evidence points to germ line genes encoding the V region structures which underlie idiotypy. Another subtheme which concerns several contributions is the occurrence of dominant idiotypes in ind...
Structure of Antigens discusses a variety of topics dealing with the structural basis of antigenicity. Topics include the analytical methods used to elucidate the structure of antigens, the structure of antibodies, the principles underlying modern immunoassays and the measurement of antibody binding affinity, and physicochemical principles and methodological aspects. The book also considers major groups of antigens distinguished by their functional activity and biological role (e.g., drugs, autoantigens, snake toxins, allergens) or by their association with particular biological systems (e.g., antigens of microorganisms). Structure of Antigens will provide a current, useful, reference for researchers and graduate students in all fields of biological science who need an overview of antigenic specificity. VOLUME II
