Neuroanatomy and transgenic technologies
Neuroanatomists increasingly rely on techniques enabling them to manipulate genes in defined brain cell populations. In particular, engineered transgenes, which encode a variety of fluorescent reporter proteins can be inserted into the genome or delivered into desired brain regions using viral vectors, thereby allowing the labeling of molecularly-defined populations of neurons and/or glial cells. Transgenic technology can also be used to selectively delete genes in targeted neuronal populations or bi-directionally modulate their electrical excitability using optogenetic or chemogenetic techniques. One of the primary advantages of using transgenic reagents is to simplify the identification and tracing of targeted population of brain cells, which can be laborious using traditional techniques in neuroanatomy. In this research topic, we assembled up-to-date reviews and original articles that demonstrate the versatility and power of transgenic tools in advancing our knowledge of the nervous system, with a special emphasis on the application of transgenic technology to neuroanatomical questions.

Metal Nanocomposites in Nanotherapeutics for Oxidative Stress-Induced Metabolic Disorders
This book highlights the role and mechanism of different metal nanocomposites toward oxidative stress-induced metabolic disorders including metabolic pathways affected by oxidative stress and related pathophysiology. The book includes an illustrative discussion about the methods of synthesis, characterization, and biomedical applications of metal nanocomposites. It focuses on the therapeutic approaches for metabolic disorders due to oxidative stress by nano delivery systems. Moreover, the book includes chapters on nanotherapeutic approaches toward different diseases, including diabetes mellitus, obesity, cardiovascular disorders, cancers, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's di...
Neuron Signaling in Metabolic Regulation
This book focuses on neuron signaling in the regulation of metabolism and body weight, and especially on methods used in these studies. Obesity and related metabolic syndromes have reached epidemic status, but still are no effective strategies for prevention and treatment. Body weight homeostasis is maintained by balanced food intake and energy expenditure, both of which are under the control of brain neurons. In the recent years, significant progress has been made in identifying specific neurons, neural pathways, and non-neuron cells in feeding regulation, as well as in delineating autonomic nervous systems targeting peripheral metabolic tissues in the regulation of energy expenditure and m...
Scientific Aspects of Dialysis Therapy
This book brings together papers presented both during the 61st Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy (JSDT) and the 34th Congress of the International Society of Blood Purification (ISBP), held in Osaka in June and in Hiroshima in September 2016, respectively. They cover a broad spectrum of topics, ranging from hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, hemodiafiltration and technical innovations in blood purification to complications of chronic kidney disease and acute kidney injury, including mineral bone disease and anemia.
