Immunology, Immunopathology, and Therapeutic Perspectives edited by Wolf-Henning Boehncke
Lymphocyte Homing to the Skin brings insight to the physiology and pathophysiology of T-cell homing as a process, as well as to the manipulation of this process for therapeutic benefit.
Lymphocyte Homing to the Skin begins with a review of the role of T-lymphocytes in skin biology, followed by coverage of the process of lymphocyte recruitment, and lymphocyte homing to the skin.
Subsequent chapters describe in vitro techniques to investigate lymphocyte extravasation, in vivo methods to study lymphocyte homing to the skin, and cutaneous T-lymphocytic infiltrates in skin pathology.
Lymphocyte Homing to the Skin concludes with discussions on translating cutaneous T-cell recruitment to patients.
Providing a timely update on T-cell homing, Lymphocyte Homing to the Skin 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 research.
