Sommario/riassunto |
|
The first comprehensive examination of these fascinating proteins ever published. Organized into five sections and sixteen chapters, this volume provides an overview of many aspects of superantigen biology. A team of researchers covers the basic molecular mechanisms of superantigen action, their structure and function, and their role in human diseases. Additionally, it explains the clinical consequences of superantigen intoxication and the latest therapeutic interventions to combat superantigen toxicity. This volume emphasizes how newly discovered structural variations among superantigens affect their interactions with human immune cells. |
