This book covers the structure and classification of adhesion
molecules in relation to signaling pathways and gene expression.
It discusses immunohistochemical localization, neutrophil
migration, and junctional, functional, and inflammatory adhesion
molecules in pathologies such as leukocyte decompression sickness
and ischemia reperfusion injury. Highlighting the medical
applications of current research, chapters cover diabetes,
obesity, and metabolic syndrome; hypoxia; kidney disease;
smoking, atrial fibrillation, and heart disease, the brain and
dementia; and tumor proliferation. Finally, it looks at molecular
imaging and bioinformatics, high-throughput technologies, and
chemotherapy.
