Overview
This state-of-the-art reference outlines current knowledge of the structure, transcriptional regulation, and binding characteristics of vascular and leukocyte adhesion molecules and their ligands delineating the nature of adhesion molecule interactions in lung morphogenesis and repair, tumor metastasis, and experimental models of inflammatory lung injury.
The book contains black-and-white illustrations.

An outline of the current research findings regarding adhesion molecules and the lung, written by 33 specialists. The sections encapsulate the experimental data available on the structure, transcriptional regulation, and binding characteristics of vascular and leukocyte adhesion molecules, as well as interactions in lung morphogenesis and repair, and tumor metastasis. Experimental models of inflammatory lung injury are discussed as a basis for developing strategies aimed at lung protection, in addition to other functions in disease processes. Annotation c.
