Grown exponentially by the genomic revolution, the use of the rat as a model of choice for physiological studies continues in popularity and at a much greater depth of understanding. In Rat Genomics: Methods and Protocols, world-wide experts provide both practical information for researchers involved in genomic research in the rat along with a more contextual discussion about the usefulness of the rat in physiological or translational research in different organs and systems. The volume extensively covers topics including genome sequencing, quantitative trait loci mapping, and the...

Over the past several years, a high diversity of regulatory cells and suppressive molecules has taken centre stage in the field of immunoregulation. In Suppression and Regulation of Immune Responses: Methods and Protocols, expert researchers highlight recent advances in the identification, characterization, and generation of regulatory cells not only of the T cell lineage but also of other origins such as B, NK, myeloid, and dendritic cells, as well as the role of several suppressive molecules in immunoregulation. Particular emphasis is placed on the characterization of the molecular...
