"Cell Movements vividly describes how complex movements can arise from the properties and behaviors of biological molecules. This second edition is updated throughout with recent advances in the field and has a completely revised and redrawn artwork program. The text is suitable…
"Providing an update on T-cell homing, this book clarifies our understanding of this complex process and offers guidance on potential therapies. It fulfills the needs of those involved in skin biology, skin toxicology, and dermatology, and proposes new directions for innovative …
Over the last decade, enormous progress in the understanding of T-cell homing has made it possible to identify the multitude of molecules involved, such as cytokines, chemokines, and adhesion molecules, and to unravel their complex interactions resulting in controlled, non-rando…
