The cDNAs for all of the components and some of the receptors have been cloned and sequenced. The chromosomal localization and the structural organization of a number of these genes have now been determined. These advances are now facilitating research into the structure of the complement proteins, the nature of the complement deficiency syndromes, the regulation of complement gene expression and the role of complement in different diseases. This edition contains contributions from both basic and clinical scientists in a format which we hope will appeal to both immunologists and physicians who wish to know more about this fascinating and important host defence system. The introductory chapter by John Weiler presents a historical background to research on the complement system and describes the biochemical events occurring during activation of the system. In Chapter 2 Alastair Dodds and Tony Day discuss the phylogeny and evolution of the complement system. The techniques of protein chemistry and molecular biology have provided powerful insights into the modular structure of complement proteins and the evolution of the complement system. The structure and organisation of the complement genes is described in Chapter 3 by Ken Reid and Duncan Campbell. This chapter describes the modular structure of the complement proteins and some of the mutations which are responsible for deficiencies of individual components.\u003ch3\u003eBook details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse:collapse;width:100%;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eISBN 13\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e9789401049818\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eISBN 10\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e9401049815\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eK Whaley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eImmunology And Medicine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNew\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eBinding Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003ePublisher\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eYear published\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e2012-10-29\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNumber of pages\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e383\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eCover note\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eBook picture is for illustrative purposes only, actual binding, cover or edition may vary.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67682257862901,"sku":"9789401049818","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/8632\/8821\/files\/9789401049818.jpg?v=1791825533","url":"https:\/\/arbiyas.com\/products\/complement-in-health-and-disease-by-k-whaley","provider":"Arbiyas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
