Description
As the autoimmune diseases could affect different organs, Translational Autoimmunity: Autoimmune Diseases in Different Organs addresses the spectrum of autoimmune diseases. The fourth volume of Translational Immunology Series focuses on clinical and laboratory details of autoimmune diseases which are broadly categorized into two types of organ-specific autoimmune diseases and non-organ specific autoimmune diseases (also known as systemic autoimmune diseases). Autoimmune rheumatic diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune rheumatic diseases such as diabetes mellitus and thyroid diseases, autoimmune neurologic diseases such as multiple sclerosis, as well as autoimmune hepatobiliary diseases, autoimmune renal diseases and autoimmune cutaneous diseases as the subject of discussion in Translational Autoimmunity: Autoimmune Diseases in Different Organs.

Reviews
"...utilizes contributors from throughout the world... to provide a resource for both clinicians and investigators in the rapidly changing field of immunology. This volume is devoted to autoimmune mediated disease manifestations in specific organs in contrast to autoimmune diseases typically considered systemic or affecting multiple organ systems.... A useful listing of abbreviations used in the book is provided prior to the first chapter. The book covers a variety of organs that are affected by immunologic disease...that provides a comprehensive overview.... [A] good starting point in creating an immunologic foundation of organ-based immune pathology." -- (c)Doody' s Review Service, 2023, Dennis Keith Ledford, MD (University of South Florida Morsani College of Medicine)
