Molecular and Cell Biology of Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Molecular and Cell Biology of Human Diseases reviews the status of research on a range of sexually transmitted diseases whose incidence has paralleled the increase in HIV infection and examines the ways in which new methods are influencing current practice and are likely to shape future management.

Advances in Cardiomyopathies
This book provides a modern survey on the pathophysiological and clinical implications of the most frequent forms of Car- diomyopathies, including diagnostic tools and new pharmaco- logical therapeutical approaches. An interesting additional aspect is the new data on immunology on dilated cardiomyo- mypathies and sudden death in children as well as heart transplantation as ultimum rationale of treatment.
Molecular and Cell Biology of Neuropsychiatric Diseases
The fourth volume in the Molecular and Cell Biology of Neuropsychiatric Diseases series provides a comprehensive, timely review of the use of modern biological techniques in the investigation of the major neuropsychiatric diseases. The scope of the book is wide, and an introductory section at the beginning of each chapter enables non-specialist and specialist alike to appreciate the significance of this research.
Molecular and Cell Biology of Human Gene Therapeutics
advanced metastatic disease of solid tumors, dictates that each tumor mass, indeed each individual metastasis, will have a unique antigen and cytokine environment and hence unique response to immune modu lation. A differential response to immunotherapy is thus inevitable. 4. Many of the human trials described are not randomized and report survival or response against historical controls. Most tumors described are immunogenic human tumors: renal cell cancer and melanoma are most common. In order to avoid the well-described inter-patient vari ation and rare incidence of spontaneous response among patient samples as well as selection bias and changes in practice over time, randomized trials are...
Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment
The first complete guide to the quantitative assessment of risks to humans posed by infectious agents in all environmental media. Recent highly-publicized infectious disease outbreaks in the United States and abroad have engendered mounting political pressure to require the use of quantitative techniques in the assessment of the risks of human exposure to an array of microorganisms. While traditional indicator methods for pathogen assessment and control have always left much to be desired, it is only with the advent of modern microbial methods that it is now possible to establish rigorous testing protocols for infectious agents comparable to those in place for chemical agents and other conta...
Epstein-Barr Virus and Human Disease • 1988
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is one of the most widespread human viruses, with over 80% of the general population exposed by young adulthood, as determined by antibody studies. Initial infection usu ally occurs during childhood or the teenage years. It is clear that, de pending on the age of the recipient, clinical manifestations of the primary infection can vary. It has been known for 20 years that EBV is the etiologic agent of acute infectious mononucleosis (IM) and is also closely associated with African Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) and naso it is a pharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). There is increasing evidence that factor in the etiology of B-celllymphomas, which arise at a high fre quency in immunodef...
Clinical Virology
Informs scientists and health care professionals about all the medically relevant aspects of this rapidly evolving field. • Covers novel viruses, pathogenesis, epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. • Addresses infections and syndromes related to particular organ systems, as well as the fundamentals of modern medical virology. • Includes crucial information on immune responses and vaccinology, diagnostics, antivirals, and the nascent field of gene therapy. • Provides agent-specific chapters that detail the virology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and prevention and treatment of important viral pathogens.
Cardiomyopathies
This book reviews the basic knowledge about the cardiomyopathies and re-enforces the well-known definitions and classification of cardiomyopathies and specific heart muscle diseases, respectively. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining the classification into hypertrophic, dilated and restrictive cardiomyopathies, even though there are exceptions. The term "realisations" in the title is used in the sense of "achievements" and alludes to the progress in the understanding of heart muscle diseases over the last three decades and also to the areas of knowledge still not fully explored, for example, the as yet un classified putative cardiomyopathies such as arrhythmogenic right ventricular d...
Encyclopedia of Virology
In recent years, progress in the field of virology has advanced at an unprecedented rate. Issues such as AIDS have brought the subject firmly into the public domain and its study is no longer confined solely to specialist groups. The Encyclopedia of Virology is the largest single reference source of current virological knowledge. It is also the first to bring together all aspects of the subject for a wide variety of readers. Unique in its use of concise 'mini-review' articles, the material covers biological, molecular, and medical topics concerning viruses in animals, plants, bacteria, and insects. More general articles focus on the effects of viruses on the immune system, the role of viruse...
