Advances in Immune Cells

White blood cells (WBCs), also called leukocytes or leucocytes, are the cells of the immune system that are involved in protecting the body against both infectious disease and foreign invaders. All white blood cells are produced and derived from multipotent cells in the bone marrow known as hematopoietic stem cells. Leukocytes are found throughout the body, including the blood and lymphatic system.

In the present book, fifteen typical literatures about advances in immune cells published on international authoritative journals were selected to introduce the worldwide newest progress, which contains reviews or original researches on immune cells, white blood cells and other blood cells etc. We hope this book can demonstrate advances in immune cells as well as give references to the researchers, students and other related people.

Components of the Book:
  • Chapter 1
    Mitochondrial function of immune cells in severe sepsis and septic shock - a prospective observational cohort study
  • Chapter 2
    Tumour-draining axillary lymph nodes in patients with large and locally advanced breast cancers undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC): the crucial contribution of immune cells (effector, regulatory) and cytokines (Th1, Th2) to immune-mediated tumour cell death induced by NAC
  • Chapter 3
    Modeling immune functions of the mouse blood–cerebrospinal fluid barrier in vitro: primary rather than immortalized mouse choroid plexus epithelial cells are suited to study immune cell migration across this brain barrier
  • Chapter 4
    Are mesenchymal stromal cells immune cells?
  • Chapter 5
    Tumor cells versus host immune cells: whose PD-L1 contributes to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade mediated cancer immunotherapy?
  • Chapter 6
    Calu-3 epithelial cells exhibit different immune and epithelial barrier responses from freshly isolated primary nasal epithelial cells in vitro
  • Chapter 7
    Immune precision medicine for cancer: a novel insight based on the efficiency of immune effector cells
  • Chapter 8
    Orchestrating an immune response against cancer with engineered immune cells expressing αβTCRs, CARs, and innate immune receptors: an immunological and regulatory challenge
  • Chapter 9
    Prognostic impact of immune gene expression signature and tumor infiltrating immune cells in localized clear cell renal cell carcinoma
  • Chapter 10
    Cocultures of human colorectal tumor spheroids with immune cells reveal the therapeutic potential of MICA/B and NKG2A targeting for cancer treatment
  • Chapter 11
    Influence on [18F]FDG uptake by cancer cells after anti-PD-1 therapy in an enforced-immune activated mouse tumor
  • Chapter 12
    The reciprocal regulation between host tissue and immune cells in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: new insights and therapeutic implications
  • Chapter 13
    Profiling networks of distinct immune-cells in tumors
  • Chapter 14
    Lnc-DC regulates cellular turnover and the HBV-induced immune response by TLR9/STAT3 signaling in dendritic cells
  • Chapter 15
