This book overviews the field of cytokine research and describes the v arious approaches that have been taken to develop the pharmacology of these novel mediators. The pharmacology of cytokines is an exploding a rea which is entering the clinical arena. The book in the framework of the immunobiology of cytokines, examines the interactions with the cy tokine system of a variety of compounds ranging from simple synthetic chemicals to biotechnological products. In addition to examining indiv idual agents and approaches, the book examines the pathophysiology of individual body systems and...

In September 2005 an International Meeting on "Targeted Therapies in Cancer: Myth or Reality" was held in Milan. This successful Meeting was intended to represent a forum for scientists and clinicians working in cancer drug discovery and therapy to share their reflections and experiences on how the paradigm shift from empiricism to molecular targeted therapies is contributing to the translation of basic knowledge into new therapies for cancer patients. This book collects the contributions given by scientists and clinicians, from Academia and Industry, who participated to this Meeting.

Macrophages are a key component of the innate immune system and play an integral role in host defense and homeostasis. On one hand, these cells contribute to host defence by triggering inflammation, displaying microbicidal/tumoricidal properties, regulating the activation of adaptive immunity and promoting resolution of inflammation. On the other hand, they contribute to essential trophic functions such as neural patterning, bone morphogenesis and ductal branching in mammary glands. Thus, macrophages are extremely versatile cells that can respond efficiently to tissue micro environmental...

Macrophages are a key component of the innate immune system and play an integral role in host defense and homeostasis. Thus, macrophages are extremely versatile cells that can respond efficiently to tissue micro environmental cues by polarizing to distinct phenotypes, depending on the functions they need to perform.
