Description
There has been an expansion of knowledge about cell adhesion mechanisms which has led to increased understanding of cell behaviour in physiological and pathological situations. This overview introduces the non-specialist to the topic, it presents the basic background and concentrates on clinical aspects of the wide variety of cell adhesion molecule-related diseases which clinicians regularly see in practice. The book is intended for clinical researchers in immunology and molecular biology, as well as rheumatology, dermatology, gastroenterology, cardiology and haematology.
