Neuroimmune
Biology (NIB) marks the beginning of a new scientific discipline, and is
presented in a new book series. This series will collect, organize, co-ordinate,
integrate and interpret the knowledge that is rapidly accumulating in biology
regarding the physiology and pathophysiology of higher organisms. It is
now apparent that the Nervous, Endocrine, and Immune systems form a regulatory
network, which is fundamental for the entire life cycle of man and of higher
animals, both in health and disease. The organization and interpretation
of knowledge concerning this regulatory system is important for a better
understanding of higher organisms in their entire complexity.
NIB
holds the promise of developing better approaches for the prevention and
cure of human and animal diseases and for the development of better methods
for the management of biological systems.
Neuroimmune
Biology is a series that is set up in a special way. With 3 volumes being
published each year it can be used as a comprehensive reference work keeping
scientists up to date. Each volume covers all aspects of a certain area
of Neuroimmune Biology and can thus be used stand-alone. |
|
|
|
|
| A three issue per year
multidisciplinary series, NeuroImmune Biology presents reviews and
theoretical papers in relation to the involvement of the neuroendocrine
and immune system in physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms. Emphasis
will be given to network interactions of neuroendocrine and immune systems
with each other and with other organs and tissues in the body. The goal
is to understand physiological and pathophysiological pathways and regulatory
circuits in their complexity as they occur in vivo. |
|
Some
of the more prominent topics are:
-
developmental
significance;
-
specific
adaptive immune reactions;
-
innate
or natural immunity;
-
the inflammatory
response;
-
the acute
phase response;
-
due to
abnormal immunoregulation (e.g. allergy, autoimmune disease, hypersensitivity
conditions, asthma, etc.);
-
the regulation
of various organs and tissues jointly by hormones, neurotransmitters and
neuropeptides, and by immune derived mediators (cytokines);
-
stromal
immunocytes as regulators (e.g. macrophages, T and B lymphocytes and regulated
cell types);
-
immunoregulation
by neurotransmitters and neuropeptides;
the
significance of neuroimmune mechanisms in normal physiology, regeneration
and healing, in reproduction biology, and so on.
