The production of signal substances such as tumour necrosis  factor-alpha, interleukin 1 and 6, and interferon alpha\/beta is  regulated by a complex set of pathways, which can also be modified by  cellular mediators, e.g. prostaglandins, growth factors and  cortico-steroids. Signal exchange between different cell types in the  liver is important for the synthesis of acute phase proteins, liver  fibrosis, permeability and liver regeneration. This has clinical  implications for hepatitis, cirrhosis and liver transplantation. \u003cbr\u003e  This book contains the proceedings of the 78th Falk Symposium (Part II  of the Gastroenterology Week, Freiburg, 1994) held on 15--16 June and  brings together clinicians and researchers worldwide to discuss the  role of cytokines in hepatology. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1995-05-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792388784\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 230\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312086536332,"sku":"9780792388784","price":197.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792388784.jpg?v=1771517824","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792388784","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
