Beschreibung
This book provides a fundamental understanding of immunopathology and immunopathologic processes, with particular attention to nonclinical toxicology studies. Chapters provide an overview of general immunobiology, cells of the immune system, signaling and effector molecules, and immunopathology assays. A companion volume, Immunopathology in Toxicology and Drug Development: Volume 2, Organ Systems, offers summaries of organ-specific immunobiology and immunopathology as well as common responses to xenobiotics.
These informative and strategic books were created in response to the large segment of drug development that focuses on chronic diseases, many of which involve alterations to the immune system. Therapies that target these diseases commonly involve some form of immunomodulation. As a result, the two volumes of Immunopathology in Toxicology and Drug Development are critical texts for individuals involved in diverse aspects of drug development. Readers will acquire a thorough understanding of immunopathology for detection and accurate interpretation of pathologic effects of xenobiotics on the immune system.

“This book provides a fundamental understanding of immunopathology and immunopathological processes. … serve as an educational book for those who are interested in learning immunopathology in xenobiotics or in general basic immunology. … a terrific book that I will certainly integrate into my graduate teaching. It covers the field in detail, includes the most updated content, and is suitable for a broad audience from faculty to students, and from novice to senior scientists who are interested in this field.” (Hongmin Ni, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2017)
