Cellular and Molecular Immunology, Updated Edition: With STUDENT CONSULT Online Access

Product Description
Case Studies in Immunology, Fifth Edition, cites major topics of immunology as the background to a selection of real clinical cases that serve to reinforce and extend the basic science. This new edition vividly illustrates the importance of an understanding of immunology in diagnosis and therapy. As well as being a valuable review aid, Case Studies in Immunology introduces in a clinical setting the major common disorders of immunity, including hypersensitivity types I-IV and autoimmune disorders such as lupus and multiple sclerosis. It also describes and explains the consequences of some of the most important immune deficiencies. Each case history is preceded by basic scientific facts essential to understanding the immunology behind the disease or disorder. An end-of-case summary, questions, and discussion points finish each case. Case Studies in Immunology can be used as a stand-alone book, or as a clinical companion alongside Immunobiology, Sixth Edition (ISBN 0-8153-4101-6) and The Immune System, Second Edition (ISBN 0-8153-4093-1).

Key Features:

Contains FIVE new cases bringing the total number of cases included to 47: Hereditary Periodic Fever Syndromes; Interleukin Receptor-associated Kinase Deficiency; Common Variable Immunodeficiency; Immune Dysregulation, Polyendocrinopathy, Enteropathy, X-linked Disease; Celiac Disease.

Each case describes real events and symptoms from case histories, ensuring that the reader is presented with, assesses, and evaluates a realistic clinical situation.

Full-color illustrations, photographs, and micrographs throughout complement the text.

Contains helpful case summary notes in margin.

Cases end with a discussion and question section; this useful pedagogic tool is designed to highlight lessons learned from individual cases.

Can be used as a clinical companion to Immunobiology, Sixth Edition, and The Immune System, Second Edition.

Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion

Product Description

Janeway’s Immunobiology, Seventh Edition is an introductory text for use in immunology courses for undergraduates, graduate students and medical students. It guides the reader through the immune system in all its aspects – from the first engagement of innate immunity to the generation of the adaptive immune response and its clinical consequences. The Seventh Edition has been comprehensively updated throughout, and includes new information on topics such as NK cells, Toll-like receptors, AID, viral evasins, mucosal immunity, and celiac disease, to name a few. Each copy of the book includes a revised CD-ROM, Immunobiology Interactive, which contains animations and videos with voiceover narration, as well as the figures from the text for presentation purposes. Janeway’s Immunobiology continues to set the standard for currency and authority with its clear writing style and organization, full-color art program, scientific accuracy and consistent viewpoint – that of the host’s interaction with an environment containing many species of potentially harmful microorganisms.

Medical Book Description:

The Immune System, Third Edition emphasizes the human immune system and synthesizes immunological concepts into a comprehensible, up-to-date, and reder-friendly account of how the immune system works.

Written for undergraduate, medical, dental, and pharmacy students in immunology courses, it makes generous use of medical examples to illustrate points.

The Third Edition has been extensively revised and updated and includes two new chapters on innate and adaptive immunity, which explore the physical, cellular, and molecular principles underlying these responses to infection. It also features enhanced coverage of aspects of innate immunity such as the complement system, Toll-like receptors, defensins, and C-reactive protein; the role of dendritic cells in initiating the primary adaptive immune response and the functions of other cells that bridge innate and adaptive immunity; immunotherapies using humanized monoclonal antibodies to treat certain diseases; and the nature of the immune response in the mucosal tissues and immunological memory. The book offers over 500 full-color illustrations that complement and clarify the concepts. The end-of-chapter questions have been expanded and include essay, multiple-choice, and case study questions, with answers provided at the end of the book.
