Klappentext zu „Chemokine Receptors as Drug Targets “
Chemokines are hormone-like signaling molecules secreted by cells to signal infection and guide the immune response. Following a decade of basic chemokine research, the pharmaceutical industry has now begun to exploit this crucial signaling pathway for the development of innovative drugs against AIDS, cancer, neural and autoimmune diseases. Here is the first reference focusing on these novel drug development opportunities.Opening with a general introduction on chemokine function and chemokine receptor biology, the second part covers the known implications of these signaling molecules in human diseases, such as cancer, neural disorders, and viral infection, including AIDS. The third part systematically surveys current drug development efforts at targeting individual chemokine receptors, as well as other chemokine interaction partners, including up-to-date reports from the pharmaceutical industry.

Rezension zu „Chemokine Receptors as Drug Targets “
"This is an excellent introduction to the topic of chemokine receptors as drug targets. Authors from both academia and the pharmaceutical industry provide updates on the progress in the research on chemokines and their receptors leading to a new approach of drug discovery to target many diseases." (Doody's, 14 October 2011) "This book covers chemokine receptors more thoroughly than any other that I have seen to date. This is an ideal text for researchers seeking to understand the full spectrum of chemokine receptor biology, recent and historical progress towards receptor inhibitors, and insights and perspectives for future research directions." (ChemMedChem, 1 August 2011)
