Cytokine Effector Functions in Tissues
Description
Key Features
- Categorizes the cytokines based primarily on tissue and target cells
- Emphasizes different roles and outcomes observed during innate and adaptive response
- Represents a rapid guide to cytokines in health and disease in tissue and organ context
- Presents a different view on how known mediators may work if analyzed in a different perspective, determining the final outcome on tissue-specific target cells
Readership
Researchers in immunology, cytokines research, molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, genome-wide association studies, pathobiology, diagnostic and clinical applications of all known interleukins, hematopoietic factors, growth factors, cytotoxins, interferons, new cytokines, and chemokines
