内容説明

This volume examines common aspects of defence occurring in plants, invertebrates and vertebrates. An international group of investigators consider various universal biological approaches to host protection - from cellular recognition phenomena to detailed molecular analysis of receptor, effector and regulatory molecules. Throughout the text, the contributors focus on basic defence mechanisms irrespective of the organism under consideration. Specific topics covered include: the role of phagocytes/macrophages in defence; non-immunoglobulin defence mechanisms; alloreactivity; the evolution of antibodies and the major histocompatibility complex; the evolution of cytokines; primordial immune mechanisms in disease and immunosuppression and the role of T-lymphocytes in disease.
