Tumor Immunology and Cancer Therapy
Based on a Tumor Immunology Symposium held in Pittsburgh, this work provides comprehensive coverage of the most important aspects of tumor immunology. It reveals novel approaches to the immunotherapy of cancer and presents complex issues in an accessible manner.

Immunological Methods
Immunological Methods, Volume III provides information pertinent to the fundamental aspects of immunological methods. This book presents recombinant DNA technology as applied to immunology. Organized into 25 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the major histocompatibility complex. This text then examines the use of monoclonal antibodies in the identification of lymphocyte membrane antigens and explains the use of monoclonal antibodies in histocompatibility typing. Other chapters consider the methods in two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis of proteins and another to lymphokines that support B cells. This book discusses as well the production and expansion of cloned B and T cell lines and hybridomas. The final chapter deals with the sophisticated methodology used with particular animal species, namely, birds, sheep, and amphibians to probe specific immunological questions. This book is a valuable resource for immunologists and investigators with extensive experience in using immunological methods. Protein chemists and biologists will also find this book useful.
Interferon and Nonviral Pathogens
This book explores the important role of the interferons in infections due to nonviral intracellular pathogens. It deals with the induction of interferons by a variety of intracellular microorganisms and the effects of interferons on the host cells and the microorganisms.
Immunoregulation in Health and Disease
Immunoregulation in Health and Disease, edited by Lukic, Colic, Mostarica-Stojkovic and Cuperlovic is a multi-authored volume covering the field of Immunoregulation, and will be essential reading for all researchers working in Immunology. Each section includes at least 10 papers contributed by experts from around the World, and covers in detail the wealth of knowledge relating to immunoregulation, both in health and disease. This book will provide an invaluable overview of immune system behaviour. The book is divided into four sections: - Regulatory, effectory, and accessory cells of the immune response - Molecular and cellular immunoregulatory mechanisms - Hypersensitivity and autoimmunity - Host reactivity to graft, tumour and infection

Japan's Defense Policy and Bureaucratic Politics, 1976-2007
It is a well known fact that Japan spends only a small percentage of her gross national product on defense. What is not well known, however, is the fact that Japan's defense budget ranks among the top in the world and that her self-defense forces are considered to be amongst the best conventional armed forces in the world. Since empirical studies concerning Japan's military expansion are rare both in Japanese and English, the book takes up this neglected area. It examines Japan's military expansion and the decision-making of her defense policy between 1976 and 2007, focusing on the National Defense Program outline and the guidelines for United States-Japan Defense Cooperation. This book deals with how the bureaucratic politics model applies to the case of Japan's defense policy and demonstrates some similarities and differences between Japanese and United States decision-making.
Hyaluronan in Cancer Biology
Hyaluronan biology is being recognized as an important regulator of cancer progression. Paradoxically, both hyaluronan (HA) and hyaluronidases, the enzymes that eliminate HA, have also been correlated with cancer progression. Hyaluronan, a long-chain polymer of the extracellular matrix, opens up tissue spaces through which cancer cells move and metastasize. It also confers motility upon cells through interactions of cell-surface HA with the cytoskeleton. Embryonic cells in the process of movement and proliferation use the same strategy. It is an example of how cancer cells have commandeered normal cellular processes for their own survival and spread. There are also parallels between cancer a...
