  • Publisher: Elsevier

Dendritic Cells, Second Edition is the new edition of the extremely successful book published in 1998. With the volume of literature on dendritic cells doubling every year, it is almost impossible to keep up. This book provides the most up-to-date synthesis of the literature, written by the very best authors. It is essential reading for any scientist working in immunology, cell biology, infectious diseases, cancer, transplantation, genetic engineering, or the pharmaceutical/biotechnology industry.An entirely new section on DC biology is included in this edition. Also new to this edition are chapters on: - Imaging - Interaction of dendritic cells with viruses - Dendritic cells and dendrikines, chemokines and the endothelium - Molecules expressed in dendritic cells - Role of dendritic cells in wound healing and atherosclerosis - Delivery of apoptotic bodies - Genetic engineering of dendritic cells - Imaging - Practical aspects of clinical protocol development

Natural Killer Cells

Natural Killer Cells explains the importance of killer cells and how they are produced. It mentions that the most likely explanation for killer cell production is that they serve as a complementary system for T cells as a primary defense against viruses. However, these cells defend against certain viruses only, such as herpes viruses and influenza viruses. The book also explains the primary functions of killer cells, and it discusses how these cells help recognize damaged tissues, limit further damage to tissues, and regenerate damaged tissues. It discusses how these cells mature and develop, and it covers the different isolation, culture, and propagation methods of these cells. Furthermore,...

C-Reactive Protein in Age-Related Disorders

Over recent years, native pentameric C-reactive protein (pCRP) and its biologically active dissociated form, monomer monomeric CRP (mCRP) have assumed an important role in disease development and pathophysiology. In this series, we have highlighted the thoughts and research of the most eminent scientists in the field of CRP research. This eBook is a collection of original articles and reviews on the subject, creating an archive of current knowledge and understanding. This Research Topic provides new findings of the role of CRP in the fields of neuroscience, cardiovascular disease, inflammation, and macular degeneration as well as defined links to stages in pathological disease progression. These articles explain the mechanisms and pathways through which the dissociated mCRP interacts with a variety of cells, and provide possible prognostic implications and new methods for analysis. Over the coming years, the importance and fascination of the active role of CRP in health and disease is set to rise, and we hope this collection will serve as a valuable reference for these future investigations.

Hermann Lotze

As a philosopher, psychologist, and physician, the German thinker Hermann Lotze (1817-81) defies classification. Working in the mid-nineteenth-century era of programmatic realism, he critically reviewed and rearranged theories and concepts in books on pathology, physiology, medical psychology, anthropology, history, aesthetics, metaphysics, logic, and religion. Leading anatomists and physiologists reworked his hypotheses about the central and autonomic nervous systems. Dozens of fin-de-siècle philosophical contemporaries emulated him, yet often without acknowledgment, precisely because he had made conjecture and refutation into a method. In spite of Lotze's status as a pivotal figure in nineteenth-century intellectual thought, no complete treatment of his work exists, and certainly no effort to take account of the feminist secondary literature. Hermann Lotze: An Intellectual Biography is the first full-length historical study of Lotze's intellectual origins, scientific community, institutional context, and worldwide reception.

Late German Idealism

  • Publisher: OUP Oxford

Frederick C. Beiser presents a study of the two most important idealist philosophers in Germany after Hegel: Adolf Trendelenburg and Rudolf Lotze. Trendelenburg and Lotze dominated philosophy in Germany in the second half of the nineteenth century. They were important influences on the generation after them, on Frege, Brentano, Dilthey, Kierkegaard, Cohen, Windelband and Rickert. Late German Idealism is the first book on this significant but neglected chapter in European philosophical history. It provides a general introduction to every aspect of the philosophy of Trendelenburg and Lotze—their logic, metaphysics, ethics and aesthetics—but it is also a study of their intellectual development, from their youth until their death. Their philosophy is placed in the context of their lives and culture.
