Description for Intracellular Traffic and Neurodegenerative Disorders
Hardback. Many adult onset neurodegenerative diseases arise from the accumulation of misfolded peptides. This book examines the role sub-cellular trafficking pathways play in the pathological accumulation of these misfolded proteins and in attempts to clear them. Series: Research and Perspectives in Alzheimer's Disease. Num Pages: 184 pages, 11 black & white illustrations, 25 colour illustrations, 10 black & white tables, biograp. BIC Classification: MJN; PSAN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 13. Weight in Grams: 467.
Neurodegenerative disorders are common and devastating. Rationally, the most effective treatments will target pathogenetic mechanisms. While alternative - proaches, based on alleviating the symptoms of patients with Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, Huntington disease, prion disorders or amyotrophic lateral sc- rosis, can be expected to reduce suffering, studies of pathogenesis of these a- related disorders will be most important for enabling early diagnosis and the creation of preventative and curative treatments. It is in this context that a recent IPSEN rd meeting (The 23 Colloque Medecine ' et Recherche, April 28, 2008) focused on a role for disruption of intracellular traf?cking ... Read more

Reviews for Intracellular Traffic and Neurodegenerative Disorders
From the reviews: “This monograph is an up to date account of the abnormalities in axonal transport of proteins and molecules in neurons in the aging and diseased brain. … This book is meant for neuropathologists, neurologists, and advanced graduate students in the Neurosciences. I can recommend it for these professionals without hesitation.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, November, 2013) ... Read more
