Allergens and Respiratory Pollutants: The Role of Innate Immunity: Woodhead Publishing Series in Biomedicine
Editat de Marc A. Williamsen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 aug 2016
- Discusses recent advances in our understanding of cell-mediated innate immune mechanisms that occur during allergic inflammation and provides important timely coverage of diseases of concern and how such diseases are influenced by a dysfunctional immune system
- Provides useful information on linking environmental 'danger signals' that provoke immune dysfunction and exacerbation of existing disease
- Draws upon the collective expertise of an international college of leaders in the field, but also provides chapters that provide essential reference material
