The Immunological Basis of AsthmaBart Lambrecht, Henk Hoogsteden, Zuzana Diamant CRC Press, 26 feb 2003 - 840 páginas This text assesses the role of dendritic cells, T and B lymphocytes, epithelial and mast cells, eosinophils, neutrophils, macrophages, and their products in the initiation and progression of airway inflammation, regulation, and repair. It unveils advances in immunology and cell biology to generate new therapeutic regimens for inflammatory and aller |
