Full Description
Only recently a new range of agents has become available that are capable of stimulating and regulating host defense systems against microorganisms. Interleukins, interferons and haematopoietic growth factors are now being produced by the biotechnology industry and are being evaluated for clinical use in this area. This text provides an up-to-date survey of this research area. The use of cytokines in a series of infectious diseases is discussed in 12 chapters, from model to clinical study, written by 25 expert authors from the world's key institutes in this area. The book is aimed at microbiologists, immunologists, molecular biologists, cell biologists and other scientific disciplines in the field of biotherapy. It should be of interest to physicians dealing with infectious diseases who wish to keep up to date with the developments in this field.
