Cytokine Cell Biology: A Practical Approach

This focuses on cell biology techniques for studying cytokines, cytokine receptors, and cytokine driven processes. Assays for human B cell responses, leucocyte migration, haematopoietic growth factors, macrophage activation by cytokines, RIA, IRMA, and ELISA assays, and quantitative biological assays for cytokines are covered. There are chapters on studying cytokine regulation of endothelial cells, the measurement of proliferative, cytostatic, and cytolytic activity of cytokines, and the use of flow cytometry and intracellular fluorescent staining
