内容説明

Presenting the basic immunology and its implications for clinical practice for both the researcher involved in clinical medicine and the surgeons and clinicians of the transplant team, this book is divided into three parts. The first part describes experimental models of graft rejection and recent advances in transplant immunology, the second discusses current and future immunosuppressive macrolids and new monoclonal antibodies, and the final section covers the clinical aspects of patient management and the complications of immunosuppressive therapy of chronic rejection.
