Astrocytes in (Patho)Physiology of the Nervous System
The goal of this book is to integrate information that has accumulated in recent years revealing the active role of astrocytes in physiological processing in the central nervous system and to use this as a basis for identifying pathological roles for these glial cells in the brain. Medical books Astrocytes in . Astrocytes, a subtype of glial cell, have long been neglected as active participants in intercellular communication and information processing in the central nervous system, in part due to their lack of the electrical excitability. However, astrocytes possess a diverse assortment of ion channels, neurotransmitter receptors, and transport mechanisms that enable astrocytes to respond to many of the same signals that act on neurons.
Since astrocytes can detect chemical transmitters that are released from neurons and can release extracellular signals, there is an increasing awareness that they play physiological roles in regulating neuronal activity and synaptic transmission. Astrocytes also play critical roles during pathophysiological states of the nervous system Medical books Astrocytes In (patho)physiology Of The Nervous System Parpura, Vladimir (editor). format mixed media product language english publication year 01 11 2008 subject medicine subject 2 clinical medicine professional title astrocytes in patho physiology of the nervous system author parpura vladimir editor haydon philip g editor publisher springer verlag publication date dec 01 2008 pages 700 binding hardcover edition 1 st dimensions 6 50 wx 9 50 hx 1 25 d isbn 0387794913 subject science life sciences general description editors parpura neurobiology u of alabama birmingham haydon

Klein Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Perfect Condition Brand New The neurodegenerative disease ALS is characterized by motor neuron loss leading to muscle weakness, paralysis and death. Although much research has been focused on the motor neuron exclusively, recent evidence suggests motor neuron death is non-cell autonomous. Underlying this susceptibility may be the oft
