Description for The Neuronal Environment. Brain Homeostasis in Health and Disease.
Hardback. Offers a perspective on neuronal function by examining its components, including their pertubation during disease states, and relates various elements to neuronal demands. This book addresses the astrocytic signaling system that controls synaptic transmission, the extracellular matrix and space as communication systems, and more. Editor(s): Walz, Wolfgang. Series: Contemporary Neuroscience. Num Pages: 432 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MJN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 254 x 178 x 27. Weight in Grams: 1123.
Leading neuroscience researchers offer a fresh perspective on neuronal function by examining all its many components-including their pertubation during major disease states-and relate each element to neuronal demands. Topics range from the dependency of neurons on metabolic supply, as well as on both ion and transmitter homeostasis, to their close interaction with the myelin sheath. Also addressed are the astrocytic signaling system that controls synaptic transmission, the extracellular matrix and space as communication systems, the role of blood flow regulation in neuronal demand and in blood-brain barrier function, and inflammation and the neuroimmune system. Insightful and integrative, The Neuronal Environment: ... Read more
