T-Helper Cells

From the book reviews: "This is a useful source of current protocols designed to capture the unique features of T helper cells with tools developed for the isolation of these cells from various tissues and subsequent analysis of their functional properties in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo. ... This book is intended for all interested in learning about protocols and methods in T helper cells. Professional laboratory scientists as well as beginners in the field of immunology will find this book extremely useful." (Omer Iqbal, Doody's Book Reviews, January, 2015)
