Passion for Excellence: My Lifelong Journey into Medicine and Public Service

Passion for Excellence: My Lifelong Journey into Medicine and Public Service by Haralampos M. Moutsopoulos
English | PDF,EPUB | 2022 | 192 Pages | ISBN : 303114127X | 5.3 MB

This autobiography chronicles the life and career of Haralampos M. Moutsopoulos, an internationally renowned professor of medicine and prolific researcher on Sjögren’s syndrome and autoimmune rheumatic diseases. In language that is simple and direct, he takes us on a fascinating journey from the days of his first scientific awakenings at a hospital in his native town of Ioannina, Greece, through his university years in Athens and training in the U.S., to his eventual return to his homeland.

Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells

Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells by Dipyaman Ganguly
English | PDF,EPUB | 2022 | 170 Pages | ISBN : 9811955948 | 25.4 MB

This book provides a systemic review of the development, function, and role of plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells (pDCs) in human diseases. The chapters of the book discuss the origin and discovery, heterogeneity, development, and transcriptional regulation of pDCs. It also discusses the role of pDCs in human diseases, including cancers, metabolic disorders, and autoimmune/inflammatory diseases, and opportunities for pDC‐targeting therapies in these diseases. It also highlights the current understanding of pDC involvement in autoimmunity and alloreactivity and opportunities for pDC‐targeting therapies in the disorders. Lastly, it reviews the experimental methodologies and animal models that are used to explore the functions of pDCs.

Thymic Development and Selection of T Lymphocytes by Thomas Boehm, Yousuke Takahama
English | PDF | 2014 | 134 Pages | ISBN : 3642402518 | 2.2 MB

The thymus is an evolutionarily ancient primary lymphoid organ common to all vertebrates in which T cell development takes place. Failing thymus function is associated with immunodeficiency and/or autoimmunity. In this volume, leading experts provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in thymopoiesis research. The chapters cover the development of the thymic epithelial microenvironment, address the formation of a diverse and self-tolerant repertoire of T cell receptors as the basis for cellular immunity, discuss the mechanisms by which progenitor cells colonize the thymus and detail the molecular basis for T lineage decisions. The reviews illustrate the important role of the multifaceted process of thymopoiesis for adaptive immunity.
