Description
Summary:An up-to-date and comprehensive resource for clinicians involved in the care of patients with inflammatory bowel disease, and for researchers seeking new directions in the investigation of inflammatory bowel disease. This edition (3rd ed., 1988) is enlarged and completely rewritten to reflect the increased knowledge in the field. Eleven new chapters have been added, including such topics as the intestinal epithelium, the inflammatory bowel disease tissue reaction, the possible role of cytokines and lymphokines, the impact of inflammation on the neuromuscular structure of the gut, and the role of intestinal neuropeptides in intestinal immunity.
