Endotoxin and Sepsis:Molecular Mechanisms of Pathogenesis, Host Resistance, and Therapycompiles the latest basic and clinical research on many aspects ofsepsis, including sepsis\/SIRS. It provides researchers andclinicians with an up-to-date overview of the critical data andconcepts in this rapidly progressing field of inquiry.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Featuring contributions by researchers and clinicians from aroundthe world, this book presents papers covering a broad spectrum ofspecialized topics in the bacteriology, biochemistry, molecular andcellular interactions, pathophysiology, and pharmacodynamics ofsepsis\/SIRS. It also presents information on in vivo detection andpotential new therapies that target sepsis and its cellulareffects. Specific topics covered in Endotoxin and Sepsis: MolecularMechanisms of Pathogenesis, Host Resistance, and Therapy include:\u003cbr\u003e * Enzymes essential to the biosynthesis of Lipid A and theirimportance in the design of a new generation of antibiotics\u003cbr\u003e * Recent breakthroughs in the understanding of the role of CD-14 incellular resistance to infection and its therapeutic implications\u003cbr\u003e * The role of Interleukin 6 in endotoxin-induced inflammatoryresponse\u003cbr\u003e * The molecular mechanisms responsible for endotoxin tolerance\u003cbr\u003e * Unique chemical and biological features of LPS, and natural andsynthetic LPS control mechanisms.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Endotoxin and Sepsis: Molecular Mechanisms of Pathogenesis, HostResistance, and Therapy is must reading for laboratory and clinicalmicrobiologists, immunologists, and other investigators studyingbacterial endotoxins, and specialists in internal medicine.
