Immunotoxicogenomics: A Multidisciplinary Approach in Systems Toxicology

By Md. Naimat Ali, Shafat Ali, Muneeb U Rehman Immunotoxicogenomics: A Multidisciplinary Approach in Systems Toxicology covers the major mechanisms and effects of toxic substances on the immune system, and on the regulation of gene expression. This includes the aims, opportunities, clinical applications, recent developments, and emerging and future trends. The book begins with a discussion of the systemic approach to toxicants, but also looks at current genomic tools used to assess immunotoxicity and systems biology methods used in immuno-toxicogenomics. Other topics include genomic expression profiling, gene expression as a tool to understand and predict immunotoxicity, immunotox-icogenomics as a screening tool, and the assessment and analysis of Immunotoxicogenomics data.This book provides a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach for researchers in the fields of toxicology, genetics, immunology, and others engaged in the study on the effects of toxic substances on immune responses. Offers background and progress information for clinical applications and potential immunotoxicogenomics prospects Covers the major mechanisms currently known by which toxic substances affect the immune system and gene expression Provides a multidisciplinary approach to immunotoxicology, with updated content on fundamentals, the latest breakthroughs, clinical applications, and future perspectives Product Details Publisher ‏ : ‎ Academic Press; 1st edition (November 1, 2024) Language ‏ : ‎ English Paperback ‏ : ‎ 306 pages ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 0443185026 ISBN-13 ‏ : ‎ 978-0443185021
