Highlighting key findings in the field, this book brings insight to the physiology and pathophysiology of T-cell homing as a process, as well as to the manipulation of this process for therapeutic benefit. The book begins with a review of the role of T-lymphocytes in skin biology, followed by coverage of the process of lymphocyte recruitment, and lymphocyte homing to the skin. Subsequent chapters describe in vitro techniques to investigate lymphocyte extravasation, in vivo methods to study lymphocyte homing to the skin, and ...

Highlighting key findings in the field, this book brings insight to the physiology and pathophysiology of T-cell homing as a process, as well as to the manipulation of this process for therapeutic benefit. The book begins with a review of the role of T-lymphocytes in skin biology, followed by coverage of the process of lymphocyte recruitment, and lymphocyte homing to the skin. Subsequent chapters describe in vitro techniques to investigate lymphocyte extravasation, in vivo methods to study lymphocyte homing to the skin, and cutaneous T-lymphocytic infiltrates in skin pathology. The text concludes with discussions on translating cutaneous T-cell recruitment to patients.
