Translational Neuroimmunology, Volume 8: Multiple Sclerosis

Translational Neuroimmunology: Multiple Sclerosis provides an update on bench to bedside studies on Multiple Sclerosis as an autoimmune disease. Divided into twelve chapters, the book begins with an in-depth introduction to the neuroimmunology and immunopathology of multiple sclerosis. Sections also provide content on genetics and epigenetics, the microbiome, diagnosis, and treatment of multiple sclerosis. Finally, various precision treatments are covered. All information is presented in an accessible, practical format, making this volume a valuable resource for immunologists, neurologists and researchers in translational biomedical research. Provides an introduction on multiple sclerosis as an autoimmune disease, from bench to bedside Encourages the development of immunologic approaches to analyze the interaction and specific properties of nervous tissue elements during development and disease Focuses on understanding and therapeutically manipulating immunological responses to injury, degeneration and autoimmunity in the central nervous system Shows the changes in relevant immune and inflammatory reactions at the cellular and molecular level during the development of nervous system diseases INDICE: 1.
