Description

This second edition updates the information on the different topics discussed in the first edition. This comprehensive work focuses on the "Acute and Chronic Transforming Retroviruses," "Cellular and Viral Oncogenes," "Functions of Oncogene and Protooncogene Protein Products," and "Oncogenes and Cancer." The number of oncogenes presently identified has grown to more than double of that which was discussed in the first edition of this book. It more clearly explains the relation of protooncogenes to neoplastic diseases, especially to human cancer. This updated edition is an absolute must for all physicians and biologists.

Description

This comprehensive set is crucial to the basic understanding of the immune system and is an essential component of the design and implementation of improved immunization strategies. Contains au-thoritative reviews of cell migration research and addresses the is-sues of lymphocyte recirculation leading to inductive interactions, and the subsequent migration and homing of effector cells gener-ated from these responses. Systemic migration of cells from the central and peripheral lymphoid organs, the dichotomy of behavior between systemic and mucosal lymphoid cell pools, and explana-tions sought for mechanisms mediating selectivity of migration and homing are covered. This set is of interest to problem oriented sci-entists.

Table of Contents

A Common Mucosal Immune System Revisited (R. Scicchitano, A. Stanisz, P. Ernst, and J. Bienenstock). Migration of T Effector Cells: Role of Antigen and Tissue Specificity (A.J. Husband and M.L. Dunkley). Migration of Lymphocytes in the Mucosal Immune System (J.M. Phillips-Quagliata and M.E. Lamm). Migration and Differentiation of IgA Precursor Cells in the Gut-Associated Lymphoid Tissue (J. Tseng). Origin and Traffic of Gut Mucosal Lymphocytes and Mast Cells (D. Guy-Grand and P. Vassalli). Lymphocyte Traffic Associated with the Gut: A Review of In Vivo Studies in Sheep (J.D. Reynolds). Lymphoid Cells Migration and Homing in the Young Pig: Alternative Immune Mechanisms in Action (R.M. Binns and R. Pabst). Index.
