Description
This is a collection of authoritative reviews covering the wider aspects of small intestinal immunopathology. The last decade has seen many notable advances in this field, such as characterisation of Ia or DR-related gene products on lymphocyte membranes; the antigen-presenting dendritic cell; the discovery of the M cell and the role of Peyer's patches in antigen processing; the trapping and subsequent priming of lymphocytes, and their patterns of migration to other mucosal sites; and the role of T lymphocyte-directed mucosal mast cells. As well as the fundamental aspects of gastrointestinal immunity, practical issues are also addressed in this volume, so as to attract and interest readers from a variety of disciplines - scientific, clinical, paediatric, veterinary, pathological - whether they are concerned with AIDS, malnutrition, immunological competence, lymphoproliferative disease in Third World Countries, coeliac disease or food allergies.
