Biologic markers - indicators of biological exposure or change - offer the promise of early detection of disease caused by environmental exposure. Researchers have used these markers to discover indications of pulmonary damage from low-level ozone, a finding with serious implications for health professionals and environmental regulators. "Biologic Markers in Pulmonary Toxicology" is a comprehensive study of this use of biologic markers. Focusing on the respiratory tract as an entryway for airborne pollutants, this volume reviews new ways of measuring markers, the need for markers to indicate d

This volume provides an overview of the topics discussed at the Sixth International Arnold Rikli Symposium on the Biological Effects of Light held in Boston, Massachusetts in the summer of 2001. In the tradition of the Symposium, the general topics include a broad range of perspectives regarding the biologic effects of sunlight and artificial ultraviolet radiation. In addition, the volume provides a great grandson’s perspective about the life and contributions of Arnold Rikli, for whom the Symposium is named.

The clinical management of autoimmune diseases has proven to be extremely difficult. Current therapies focus on trying to alleviate symptoms, but fail to correct the fundamental immune defects that lead to pathology. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to understand much of the biology of antigen presentation, lymphocyte activation and the effects of cytokines. The articles in this book provide an up-to-date review of current innovative therapies using both biologic and gene therapy for the treatment of selected autoimmune diseases. Therapeutical approaches discussed include oral tolerance,
