Immunomodulation
On May 14-16, 1982, a group of scientists met in Viareggio, Italy to present ideas, and exchange relevant data on current approaches on immunomodulators. We felt that the embodiment of the substance of that international symposium into this volume will be beneficial in keeping both clinicians and basic scientists abreast of the latest exciting developments in this rapidly accelerating field. We hope that the publication of this series of papers by an international panel of experts will enhance the nature of future inves t igat ive stud ies with such ent it ies . Under the rubric of immunology, it is obvious that such a term as "immunomodulation" could be construed as being all encompassing. ...
Leukocyte Membrane Determinants Regulating Immune Reactivity
Leukocyte Membrane Determinants Regulating Immune Reactivity is a result of the Leukocyte Culture Conference meeting held at Amsterdam in 1975. Abstracts presented in the meeting are compiled in this book. The topics of these abstracts are all under leukocyte biology and include not just lymphocytes but also monocytes, macrophages, and granulocytes. The text is composed of six major sections. The first section features abstracts that deal with ligand binding and subsequent changes in membrane. Section II focuses on the receptors on lymphocytes in the context of various subpopulations. Immune reactivity, specifically its augmentation or suppression, is the main topic of Section III. Gene products are emphasized in Section IV, while effector functions of membrane determinants are tackled in Section V. Finally, Section VI features leukocyte membrane determinants in differentiation and maturation. The book presents much detailed information that will be of great help to students or professionals in the study of biology, specifically leukocyte biology.

Antibiosis and Host Immunity
This book contains 32 chapters based on the corresponding papers delivered at the International Symposium on Antimicrobial Agents and Immunity, held in Siena, Italy on May 2-4, 1985 as a Satellite Symposium of the Third International Conference on Immunopharmacology, held in Florence, Italy on May 6-10, 1985. As editors we express our profound appreciation and gratitude to the authors who have contributed so richly to this volume, and we think that it may not be too much to hope that a new cadre of investigators and students will share this gratitude for these records of experience and insight into antibiotic and host-parasite interactions. We owe a very special gratitude to Mrs. Christine A...
Organ Allocation
Over the last few years, transplantation knowledge and techniques, as well as insights into pharmacology, have improved, thus enabling greater access to transplantation for patients. The pool of organs for transplantation is stable, and therefore insufficient to cope with the growing demand. To adjust demand and resources in the most equitable way, organ procurement and allocation have been organized nationally and often across borders. The national and international organ exchange programs were studied and discussed during the Congress on Organ Allocation, from which this book is derived. This book describes the state of the art in the management of waiting lists and the allocation of organs in transplantation. It includes chapters on the possibilities of expanding the pool of available cadaver organs. It also analyzes the results of transplantation of cadaver organs from older donors and marginal, non-heart beating donors. Transplantation policies based on the offering of organs by living donors are also described, as is the impact of delayed graft function on organ allocation.
Diabetes mellitus
Die BeitrAge dieses Buches beschAftigen sich mit AutoimmunitAt, Immuntherapie des Typ-I Diabetes, Virusgenese, Insulintherapie und -allergie. Schwerpunkte liegen auf den dynamischen Aspekten der Insulinsubstitution unter BerA1/4cksichtigung einer angepaAten DiAt und der Therapie mit oralen Antibiotika, Insulinen und Pro-Insulinen. Gleichzeitig wird anhand der Makro-Angiopathie und der Neuropathie auf die Auswirkungen der dynamischen Insulinsubstitution bei SekundArkomplikationen hingewiesen. Die MAglichkeit der computerunterstA1/4tzten TherapiefA1/4hrung und glukosesensorgesteuerten Biofeedback-Kontrolle werden vorgestellt. Ein umfangreiches Kapitel vermittelt den aktuellen Stand der experimentellen Forschung und der klinischen Anwendung der Pankreas- und Inselzelltransplantation.
Rejection and Tolerance
Rejection and Tolerance is the latest subject in the Continuing Education series, organized by Fondation Marcel Mérieux and Université Claude Bernard in Lyon. The annual subject is chosen to reflect the status of the topical issues of the year, as taught by leading international experts. The contribution of transplantation and clinical immunology to advanced medicine is considerable and promising. The annual volumes in this series keep the reader abreast of these developments.
