Reviews

". . . contains a masterful review of some of the most exciting areas in the chemokine field, ranging from the effects of chemokines and their receptors in retroviral infections, to angiogenesis/antiangiogenesis, to inflammation, to asthma, to transplantation, to name a few of the areas of study. :-Foreword by Peter Ward, PhD
.
"The editor is a recognized authority in chemokines. Knowledgeable individuals wrote the chapters. . .There is, in this one volume, a major focus on different diseases in which chemokines seem to play particularly important roles and thus the information is easily accessed. "-Doody's Health Scienc Book Review Journal

"...the reader will find great interest in reading the very good reviews on the contribution of chemokines in inflammatory diseases....A very nicely documented chapter deals with the presence of chemokine receptors in the central nervous system (CNS) and illustrates the importance to further study this field during CNS related diseases such as Alzheimer's disease or multiple sclerosis....very interesting and important topics are presented in this book.... All scientists and physicians dealing with inflammatory processes should be aware of its content."- Biochimie
