Despite increasing research to facilitate the understanding of the pathophysiology of autoimmune disorders, the exact cause of the incident of autoimmunity is unknown. Current concepts on the occurrence of autoimmune diseases are thought to involve autoantigens, genetic predisposition, disease triggers, and the breakdown of immune tolerance. In addition to the breakdown of immunological tolerance, one key characteristic of autoimmune disease is that within a single disease there is considerable variability in the clinical manifestation and severity in patients. Single-cell omics have emerged as an effective means of unraveling the complexity and heterogeneity of chronic disease development and therapeutic responses. Recently, advances in cutting-edge spatial profiling of diverse cell types have increased our understanding of how distinct cells interact and orchestrate at specific locations across a tissue landscape in both physiological and pathological contexts at the single-cell level.
This practical, applications-based professional handbook comprehensively covers the theory and applications of Fourier Analysis, spanning topics from engineering mathematics, signal processing and related multidimensional transform theory, and quantum physics to elementary deterministic finance and even the foundations of western music theory.
Kidney disease is a leading cause of death worldwide and is increasingly recognized as a global health problem. The kidneys are a frequent target of systemic immune and autoimmune disorders, including systemic autoimmunity and vasculitis, immune complex-related serum sickness, and complement disorders. The complex regulation between the immune system and inflammation plays a key role in the progression of kidney disease, especially in immune-related nephropathy. Cytokines released by monocytes/macrophages, including IL-17, INF-γ, TNF, and IL-6, exacerbate renal dysfunction and injury. M1 pro-inflammatory cells help to clear infections but can also promote renal injury and lead to renal fibr...
