T-Cell Development
This second edition volume provides new and updated chapters detailing simple and accessible experiment protocols to explore thymus biology. Chapters are divided into three parts presenting short reviews, analysis strategies, protocols for cell preparation, flow cytometry analyses, Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILC), mouse T-cell development, antigen receptor-less cousins of T cells, bone marrow chimeras, thymic stroma, and multiple aspects of thymocyte biology. Written in the successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and cutting-edge, T-Cell Development: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition aims to be a useful practical guide to help readers overcome obstacles associated with experimental approaches of T-cell development.
Encyclopedia of Stress
Stress is generally defined as a strain upon a bodily organ or mental power. Depending on its duration and intensity, stress can have short- or long-lasting effects: it has been linked to heart disease, immune deficiency, memory loss, behavioral disorders, and much more. These effects on the individual also have a major impact on health care costs and services, employee productivity, and even violent crime. The Encyclopedia of Stress is the first comprehensive reference source on stressors, the biological mechanisms involved in the stress response, the effects of activating the stress response mechanisms, and the disorders that may arise as a consequence of acute or chronic stress. While oth...
Mechanisms of Immune Regulation
Immunologists, molecular and cell biologists, oncologists, pharmacologists and those working in the pharmaceutical field will find this book of particular interest.
Viral Superantigens
Since the discovery of viral superantigens in 1991, immunologists have made a number of new discoveries. The discoveries, especially those relating to the interplay between the immune system and viruses producing superantigens, have had a great impact on immunology and virology, as it appears that some diseases are triggered or exacerbated by viral superantigens. Viral Superantigens presents a complete review of this new area of study. Edited by a leading researcher and authored by a distinguished team of contributors, this comprehensive analysis covers every aspect of viral superantigens and related subjects, including critical topics such as effects on the T cell repertoire and viral superantigen-mediated diseases. Immunologists and virologists, clinical practitioners, and graduate students will find this book an invaluable resource to encourage further advances in research.
T Cell Protocols
The purpose of T Cell Protocols: Development and Activation is to c- lect a series of protocols, particularly those that have been developed within the past few years, to help investigators master new techniques (or improve existing ones) for the study of T-cell Biology. Invariably, in putting together a book like this it is difficult to decide which methods to include and which to leave out. To this end methods were selected from a variety of disciplines, including cellular immunology, b- chemistry, and molecular biology, to try to provide something of interest for everyone who works on T-cell development and activation. I would like to mention that my primary reason for agreeing to put thi...
Encyclopedia of Stress
Comprised of nearly 400 entries by leading experts on the subject, "The Encyclopedia of Stress" covers almost every aspect and ramification of stress. The book explores the effects of stress on behavior, psychiatric and psychosomatic disorders, cardiovascular systems, reproductive function, and immune function, plus stress as a consequence of work, post-traumatic stress, and stress and predisposition to disease.

Neuroimmunomodulation
The discipline of neuroimmunomodulation is devoted to interactions between the immune nervous systems at all levels and includes observation on brain, pituitary, peripheral nervous system and immune cells. Nitric oxide synthase is contained within neurons in the brain and modifies behavioural and hormonal responses by acting on other neurons and on release of peptides and other transmitters through activation of guanylate cyclase and cyclooxygenase. Increases in this and in expression of proinflammatory cytokines can contribute to damage in patients with multiple sclerosis, Parkinsonism, meningitis, stroke, and Alzheimer's disease.
