Myasthenia Gravis and Myasthenic Disorders
This volume of the Contemporary Neurology Series presents an in-depth survey of presently recognized myasthenic disorders. The book begins with a description of the approach to diseases of the neuromuscular junction, surveying the anatomy and molecular architecture of the neuromuscular junction, the structure and kinetic properties of the acetylcholine receptor, and the electromyographic investigation of defects of neuromuscular transmission. The second section reviews the immunopathogenesis, experimental models, natural history, diagnosis, and treatment of autoimmune myasthenia gravis. The third section focuses on the clinical electrophysiologic, and, where relevant, the molecular genetic f...
The Autoimmune Diseases
Since publication of the Third Edition in 1998, the understanding of the immune mechanisms underlying autoimmunity and autoimmune disease has significantly deepened and broadened. This Fourth Edition incorporates new material and combines common themes underlying inductive and effector mechanisms and therapies that relate generally to the autoimmune disorders. It discusses the biological basis of disease at genetic, molecular, cellular, and epidemiologic levels.New to This Edition:* Tissue-specific interventions to arrest or "cure" autoimmune disease* Bone marrow eradication and replacement* Both basic science and clinical medicine is covered* Boxed points to emphasize key features of each chapter
