Cytokines and chemokines in autoimmune disease /

This book attempts to capture recent knowledge on the role of cytokines and chemokines in autoimmunity by focusing on some of the most prevalent organ-specific or systemic autoimmune disorders. After beginning chapters on the function and structure of cytokines and chemokines, sections cover their g...
