This book contains a series of contributions from internationally renowned academics with special expertise in one or other diseases which collectively are grouped under the heading myeloproliferative disorders. There have been many recent developments in understanding the pathophysiology and a number therapeutic innovations in this area. A feature of this book is the speed with which it has been produced an important factor in this rapidly moving field.

Few publications focus on the mysterious, genetically acquired disease paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and the related "intractable" disorders aplastic anemia and myelodysplastic syndromes. Now, however, the latest understanding of the clinical and molecular genetic aspects of PNH is summarized here in the proceedings of the International Symposium held in Tokyo in 2001. Major topics reviewed include the molecular mechanisms of the PIG-A gene mutation; complement activation and inhibitors; experimental animal models; pathogenesis; the history of PNH research; the natural history...

Ecco finalmente disponibile in italiano un testo che sin dalla sua prima edizione, nel 1992, si e rivelato un'indispensabile guida per la comprensione di una scienza giovane dai rapidi e promettenti sviluppi. Introduzione alla Medicina Molecolare, giunto oggi a una terza edizione completamente rinnovata, presenta in modo sintetico ma esauriente i principi scientifici e tecnologici di questa disciplina e fornisce, con un linguaggio ampiamente accessibile, gli strumenti concettuali di base per comprendere

- il genoma umano

- l'espressione e la regolazione genica

- i diversi aspetti...

Written by a team of leading authorities in pathogenesis, diagnostic techniques, and clinical management strategies in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), this text provides a concise, easy-to-follow review of the advances in the science, classification, diagnosis, and management of the condition.

Proceedings of the Twenty-Eighth International Symposium on Blood Transfusion, Groningen, NL, Organized by the Sanquin Division Blood Bank North-East, Groningen.

It is in many ways fitting that the last of these international symposia on blood transfusion should end with neonatal blood transfusion. The most fragile, least well studied and most at risk population requires special care and concern. We need to expand our knowledge of their unique physiology, biochemical pathways and in planning treatment and interventions, always "do no harm."

This proceedings of the last...
