It enables the reader to immerse in the new aspects of Mast Cells biology, which are no longer seen as an immunological effector cell, but a multi-functional efector cell. One which have roles that expands beyond the immunological realm and shows deep implications in the pathophysiology of several human disorders as well as transforming into a very important and promising target for therapy development in cancer, neurodegerative disorders, angiogenesis, inflammation and allergy. Across twelve chapter on Mast Cells Research, starting from the discovery and characterization of Mast Cells until the lastest findings and translational perspectives, the reader will get a complete view and a profound insight on the fundamental and applied aspects of Mast Cells Biology. The chapters are written in a clear and concise way in order to help navigating through complex biological scenarios. The author, Domenico Ribatti, Full professor of the University of Bari, is an expert in the field of Mast Cells with more than 800 publications. 606 $aCancer 606 $aImmunology 606 $aMedical genetics 606 $aMedicine$xResearch 606 $aBiology$xResearch 606 $aCytology 606 $aMedical sciences 606 $aCancer Biology 606 $aImmunology 606 $aMedical Genetics 606 $aBiomedical Research 606 $aCell Biology 606 $aHealth Sciences 615 0$aCancer. 615 0$aImmunology. 615 0$aMedical genetics. 615 0$aMedicine$xResearch. 615 0$aBiology$xResearch. 615 0$aCytology. 615 0$aMedical sciences. 615 14$aCancer Biology. 615 24$aImmunology. 615 24$aMedical Genetics. 615 24$aBiomedical Research. 615 24$aCell Biology. 615 24$aHealth Sciences. 676 $a616.079 676 $a616.0799 700 $aRibatti$b Domenico$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0793065 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349455203321 996 $aThe Mast Cell$92224724 997 $aUNINA
