Produktbeschreibung

This volume explores techniques used to study and understand the latest research on pyroptosis. The chapters in this book cover topics such as experimental methods to induce pyroptosis via inflammasomes; approaches to identifying inflammasome activation in humans; ways to induce and detect pore formation; and techniques to evaluate cellular outcomes of pyroptotic cell death. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Cutting-edge and thorough, Pyroptosis: Methods and Protocols is a valuable tool for researchers who want to expand their knowledge of this developing field. It will be especially beneficial for those working in the fields of immunology, cancer biology, microbiology, and cell biology.
