A collection of reviews and summaries from recent research articles that examine the role of inflammatory cells and their mediators in the pathogenesis of asthma. Topics include the pharmacological and biochemical regulation of airways; involvement of key inflammatory cells; characteristics of receptors for leukotriene B 4, C 4, and D 4, adenosine, platelet-activating factor, sensory and inflammatory peptides; and anti-asthmatic drugs and airway inflammation. Acidic paper. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

Inflammatory Cells and Mediators in Bronchial Asthma provides reviews and summaries regarding state-of-the-art articles that examine the role of various inflammatory cells and their mediators in the pathogenesis of asthma

Inflammatory Cells and Mediators in Bronchial Asthma provides reviews and summaries regarding state-of-the-art articles that examine the role of various inflammatory cells and their mediators in the pathogenesis of asthma. Topics include pharmacological and biochemical regulation of the airways; involvement of key inflammatory cells and the release and effect of their mediators in airway function; and the characteristics of receptors for leukotriene B4, C4, and D4, adenosine, platelet-activating factor, sensory and inflammatory peptides, and the effect of various anti-asthmatic drugs on airway inflammation. Physicians, allergists, immunologists, and pulmonary disease research scientists will find this book to be an invaluable reference resource.
