This new edition continues the tradition of integrating the physiological, pathological and clinical aspects of haematology, which is ideal for medical students, junior doctors and other allied health professionals. The book concentrates on the core subject knowledge and each chapter begins with a list of learning objectives that identifies the key elements that students need to know. There are also brief sections on the approaches to investigation and treatment of haematological problems. Extensively revised and updated to include the considerable advances in our understanding of the molecular biology and pathogenesis of haematological disorders Improved structure to allow students to find what they need quickly and easily Now illustrated in colour throughout with new illustrations and photographs of important normal and abnormal blood cells This comprehensive guide to haematology is an essential aid to anyone who wants a concise introduction to the subject and an ideal revision companion.
This volume and future ones in the series, which is now under new editorship. depart from the pattern established by previous volumes in containing chapters loosely related to one another. It is thus appropriate that each volume should have a relevant subtitle. In the present volume the underlying theme is immu nology and its application to the study of a number of different biochemical systems. Almost inevitably, the study of the cell-surface antigens and glycoproteins of a number of different tissues tends to dominate the contents, but considerable emphasis is also placed on subcellular organelles and enzymes. Undoubtedly, it is the impact of readily available monoclonal antibodies that do...

Activation of the complement system gives rise to a number of molecular species which can interact with host-derived cells and regulate their function. This interaction is mediated through distinct cell surface complement receptors, and receptor engagement produces biologic responses which can either modulate host defense reactions or enhance inflammation. Although the first complement receptor was recognized more than 30 years ago [80J, detailed biochemical information concerning the receptors has only recently become available. Currently, eight distinct complement receptors are recognized. Five receptors (CRl, CR2, CR3, C3a receptor, and C3e receptor) react with various regions on C3 while...
