Chemokine Biology - Basic Research and Clinical Application Vol. 1: Immunobiology of Chemokines /

The discovery of interleukin-8 close to 20 years ago initiated a new field of research touching on many aspects of immunology and inflammation. Interleukin-8 is just one member of a large class of structurally related chemoattractant proteins, known as chemokines. Chemokines are involved in the traf...
