[PDF] The Molecular Biology of Autoimmune Disease T. Logtenberg, J. E. Berman, F. W. Alt (auth.), Andrew G. Demaine, J-Paul Banga, Alan M. McGregor (eds.)

Autoimmune diseases are common and often associated with considerable morbidity or – in diseases such as IDDM, myasthenia gravis and multiple sclerosis – mortality. In this volume, experts of international stature in basic science and clinical medicine with a common interest in understanding the normal and aberrant immune response present their experiences. It was their intention to fur- ther the understanding of potential clinical application of scientific observations and to help to comprehend the huge amount of results in autoimmunity research.
