This unique book officially defines microbiome statistics as a specific new field of statistics and addresses the statistical analysis of correlation, association, interaction, and composition in microbiome research. It also defines the study of the microbiome as a hypothesis-driven experimental science and describes two microbiome research themes and six unique characteristics of microbiome data, as well as investigating challenges for statistical analysis of microbiome data using the standard statistical methods. This book is useful for researchers of biostatistics, ecology, and data analysts. Presents a thorough overview of statistical methods in microbiome statistics of parametric and no...
Cell-mediated immunity to extracellular and intracellular microbes has been traditionally linked to CD4+ and CD8+ T cells that recognize pathogen-derived peptides in the context of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II and class I molecules, respectively. Recent progress in our understanding of early host defense mechanisms has brought ‘unconventional’, innate-like T cells into the spotlight. These are a heterogeneous population of non-MHC-restricted T cells that exhibit ‘memory-like’ properties and mount emergency responses to infection. They may directly detect and destroy infected cells, but are best known for their ability to regulate downstream effector cells including...
