MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
This much-needed text develops current knowledge on the mechanisms of angiogenesis at the molecular and cellular levels as they relate to inflammation, including acute and chronic inflammation, neurogenic initiation, and the role of the multiple cellular components that comprise inflammation. The volume brings together experts in each of these fields to link the molecular and cellular processes in angiogenesis to those of inflammation and disease, culminating in a discourse on areas for future therapies.
Contents:
Neurogenic angiogenesis and inflammation.- The angiogenic drive in chronic inflammation: Hypoxia and the cytokine milieu.- Dendritic cells and angiogenesis.- The lymphocyte in inflammatory angiogenesis.- The fibroblast and myofibroblast in inflammatory angiogenesis.- Chemokines and cytokines in inflammatory angiogenesis.- Modelling angiogenesis in inflammation.- Angiogenesis in the inflammation of arthritis.
