Neurogenic Inflammation
(Take advantage of this unique book - the first single-vol...)
Take advantage of this unique book - the first single-volume resource to explore all important aspects of neurogenic inflammation. An unrivaled compilation of up-to-date information, Neurogenic Inflammation contains chapters written by recognized authorities in their areas of expertise. It covers the basic mechanisms and the pathophysiological implications of neurogenic inflammatory processes and points to novel therapeutic strategies in the field of inflammatory and related diseases. The book highlights the many systems and mechanisms involved in neurogenic inflammation, including vasodilatation, plasma extravasation, leukocyte adhesion, smooth muscle contraction, exocrine gland secretion, and recruitment of inflammatory cells. The authors discuss the contribution of neurogenic inflammation to human diseases, such as migraine, asthma, arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease, linked to the ubiquitous distribution of sensory nerves to organs and tissues at both the somatic and visceral level. Neurogenic Inflammation is the clear choice for a one-step, authoritative guide to the latest developments in this dynamic field.
