MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
Responding to the growth of research in the field over the past decade, this book brings together leading investigators with expertise in pulmonology, pathology, and developmental biology to clarify the mechanisms that regulate the development of bronchial vascular remodeling in asthma and COPD, as well as explore the pathophysiological processes that may impact the formulation of new therapeutic strategies for these conditions.
Contents:
Developmental Origins of the Bronchial Vasculature: Experimental Approaches to Study the Structure and Function of Bronchial Vasculature. Noninvasive Measurement of Airway Blood Flow. Molecular Mechanisms of Angiogenesis. Chemokine Regulation of Angiogenesis. The Role of the Extracellular Matrix in Angiogenesis. Angiogenesis in the Asthmatic Airway. Bronchial Vascular Remodeling in Emphysema/Chronic Bronchitis. Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling in COPD. Angiogenesis: Lessons Learned From Skeletal Muscle. Pharmacologic Modulation of Bronchial Vascular Remodeling: Current Therapies and Novel Approaches
