These immunomodulatory properties, best described for treating inflammatory airway diseases, protect the lung and the host and improve clinical status. This book summarizes our current knowledge regarding proposed mechanisms for these properties, established clinical results, and what the future may hold with emphasis on novel clinical applications and the fascinating development of non-antimicrobial macrolides with preserved and enhanced immunomodulatory properties. 0aInflammation. 0aCancer. 0aImmune system. 0aCellular signal transduction. 0aImmunology. 0aImmunotherapy.14aInflammation.24aCancer Biology.24aImmune Cell Signalling.24aImmunology.24aImmunotherapy.1 aRubin, Bruce K.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aShinkai, Masaharu.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303142858608iPrinted edition:z978303142860908iPrinted edition:z9783031428616 0aProgress in Inflammation Research,x2296-4525 ;v9240uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-42859-3
