- Summary:
- This reference discusses the role of chemokines in mediating leukocyte trafficking, angiogenesis, tumor cell metastasis, host defense, trauma-induced lung injury, and the progression of AIDS in the lung -- emphasizing their importance in health and potential applications for treating illnesses. Studies cytokines as natural agents for modulating diseases that affect the lung. More than 30 contributors assess the roles of chemokines in asthmatic airway responses...viral infections in the exacerbation of asthma...COPD...pulmonary inflammation in infants and children...neutrophil trafficking in cystic fibrosis...and antimicrobial host defense in the lung, and reveal strategies for inhibiting chemokines in ARDS...future uses of chemokines in the treatment of lung disease or injury...the role of CCR8 in granulomatous inflammation...the role of CXC chemokines/chemokine receptors during acute lung allograft rejection and infection...chemokine involvement in the recruitment of leukocytes to tumors and organ-specific metastasis...and the role of chemokines in pleural disease.
