Graft-versus-host Disease

This reference presents comprehensive coverage of graft-versus-host disease. A historical overview of graft-versus-host disease is provided, followed by a description of the major histo-compatibility complex. The results of the experimental models of graft-versus-host disease are also described. The second half of the book examines both acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease, as well as clinical trials involved in both of these entities. Promising approaches for the prevention and treatment of graft-versus-host disease are also investigated.
