Written by nearly 60 of the world''s leading investigators in this rapidly expanding field, this state-of-the-art reference furnishes detailed presentations on the basic science and clinical aspects of cilia, mucus, and mucociliary interactions.
Providing stimulating coverage of the latest information in a single source, Cilia, Mucus, and Mucociliary Interactions
discusses the genetic determinants of mucociliary system structure and function
explains ciliary wave activity in cell-cell communication
elucidates many of the key physiological processes in ciliary regulation
reveals possible means of treating irregularities in mucus secretion and clearance
improves understanding of clinical syndromes, including abnormalities pertaining to nasal sinuses, upper and lower airways, and the systemic role of cilia
approaches the clinical management of mucociliary dysfunction logically using currently available diagnostic and therapeutic techniques
and much more!
Containing bibliographic citations, tables, equations, drawings, and photographs, this exhaustive guide is essential reading for physiologists, pulmonologists, otolaryngologists, pediatricians, microbiologists, basic scientists, and graduate and medical school students in these disciplines.
