A comprehensive summary of knowledge on experimental and clinical granulomatoses. * Covers the major aspects of the granulomatous response, providing the basis for the understanding of the overall granulomatous immune response and its resolution. * Provides an in-depth discussion of the mechanistic basis of inflammation in a number of representative granulomatous diseases, illustrates different cellular responses and immune mechanisms within the framework of the general granulomatous response. * Examines experimental treatments of mice by cell transfer between donor and recipient, infection of inflammatory/regulatory cytokines or cytokine-neutralizing antibodies, and use of mice genetically deficient in cytokine/chemokine production or cytokine/chemokine receptor expression.
