Description for TRP Channels in Sensory Transduction
Hardback. TRP Channels in Sensory Transduction Editor(s): Bacigalupo, Juan; Madrid, Rodolfo. Num Pages: 244 pages, 10 black & white illustrations, 23 colour illustrations, 5 black & white tables, biograph. BIC Classification: MFG; PSAN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational.

TRP channels play a key role in sensory physiology and have been the focus of intensive investigation in recent years. The proposed book will be a comprehensive, detailed overview of the ways in which TRP channels are involved in a wide variety of sensory modalities. Authors will explore the involvement of TRP channels in photo transduction (sight), chemotransduction (taste and odor), mechanotransduction (touch and hearing), thermo transduction (the sensation of temperature) and pain perception. Furthermore, the book will include some grounding chapters such as one on the history of TRP channel research, one on the biophysical characteristics of the proteins and one on trafficking and post-translational regulation.

About . Ed(S): Bacigalupo, Juan; Madrid, Rodolfo
Juan Bacigalupo, born in Santiago, Chile, did his undergraduate in Biology at the Universidad de Chile, after which he obtained a position in the same university. He was trained in electrophysiology and biophysics in the renowned Laboratory of Montemar, Chile. He moved to Brandeis University (USA) for his doctoral studies. In this work he pioneered the patch clamp studies of ... Read more
Reviews for TRP Channels in Sensory Transduction
“This is a good monograph on ion channels in cell receptors of Drosophila & C Elegans. … I highly recommend this book to all readers with interests in physiology and cell biology.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, September, 2015)
