This key work in the field draws on a broad spectrum of molecular
biologic, biochemical, and immunogenetic approaches in combination with
human and murine in vitro cell culture and in vivo model systems to
address questions in mucosal immunity. Humans produce more
immunoglobulin A (IgA) than all other antibody isotypes combined. This
book is designed to serve as a concise reference of the present
knowledge of the biology of IgA.
