Acute Phase Proteins as Early Non-Specific Biomarkers of Human and Veterinary Diseases
By Francisco Veas
Acute Phase Proteins as Early Non-Specific Biomarkers of Human and Veterinary Diseases PDF book consist of chapters that give a large panel of fundamental and applied knowledge on one of the major elements of the inflammatory process during the acute phase response, i.e., the acute phase proteins expression and functions that regulate homeostasis. We have organized this book in two volumes – the first volume, mainly containing chapters on structure, biology and functions of APP, the second volume discussing different uses of APP as diagnostic tools in human and veterinary medicine.
