Overview: This book will discuss recent progress in innate immunity and Treg cells.This book will discuss the regulation of innate immunity through Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling.Additionally, this book wil.Innate and adaptive immunity play important roles in immunosurveillance and tumor destruction. However, increasing evidence suggests that tumor-infiltrating immune cells may have a dual function: inhibiting or promoting tumor growth and progression. Although regulatory T (Treg) cells induce immune tolerance by suppressing host immune responses against self- or non self-antigens, thus pl

Overview: Offers empirical evidence from ongoing case studies in West Africa.Proposes a new framework for thinking about development issues.Features collaborative research from economists and anthropologists.This book argues that development strategies have thus far failed in Western Africa because the many challenges afflicting the area have yet to be explored and understood from the perspective of institutional resources. With a particular focus on three countries on the bend of the Upper West African coast – Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone – this book offers a theory to account for the nat
