内容説明

Cytokines are proteins that control communication between cells and they are important in immunity, inflamation, tissue development, tissue repair, and cancer. This book is the new, revised edition of "Cytokines: A Practical Approach" published in 1991. It provides detailed, up-to-date practical information for the study of cytokines and cytokine-like activity and is also a guide to identifying and characterizing individual cytokines and provides a review of cytokine biology. In addition, in providing a guide to some of the most useful techniques in cell and molecular biology, immunology, and biochemistry, it will be useful to workers in many different disciplines of biomedical research. In this second edition, many important new techniques have been added including methods for developing cytokine transgenic mice, measuring soluble cytokine receptors, and assays for newly discovered cytokines (up to 1L-14). Each chapter has been updated in line with current experiments.

内容説明

Cytokines are important mediators of immunity, inflammation, and cell growth and are relevant to many areas of biomedical research. This book, now in its second edition, provides detailed up-to-date practical information for the study of cytokines and their receptors, including guides to many of the most useful current techniques in cell and molecular biology, immunology, and biochemistry. In all it contains 184 protocols, providing a comprehensive resource for researchers in many disciplines of biomedical research. This book is intended for postgraduate and postdoctural researchers in immunology, infectious diseases, autommunity, oncology, and biomedical research in general.
