DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis case study illustrates the features of a common type of myasthenia gravis, which is observed in older people and is called the oculobulbar form because it principally involves the muscles of the eye. Abnormalities of the thymus are not observed in older patients and thymectomy does not help.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis case study is about a 25-year-old male admitted into hospital for the 28th time. He was later diagnosed with a genetic deficiency in factor I that were instrumental in deciphering the mechanism of activation of the alternative pathway of complement activation important in innate immunity.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume focuses on therapeutic targets that were identified after TNF blockade. All these targets have recently been registered or are currently under development for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Each chapter explores the biological rationale of a distinct therapeutic target in great detail. Readers will discover the latest in vitro work, animal models, and results from clinical trials.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book, the third volume of the new series 'Current Directions in Autoimmunity', is the first one to exclusively focus on one disease. Written by experts in genetics and immunobiology, the articles reflect the complexity and multiple facets of the disease process but also show their convergence to a better understanding of pathogenetic mechanisms and the evolving clinical applications. The models and concepts described in this volume have implications for studies of other inflammatory diseases and are of interest not only for clinical and basic scientists devoted to the study of rheumatoid arthritis but for investigators of autoimmune diseases in general.
