Springer Book Archives
". . . 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
