Our Wired Nerves

The nervous system is a complex, sophisticated system that regulates and coordinates body activities. It is made up of two major divisions: the central nervous system consisting of the brain and spinal cord and the peripheral nervous system. This consists of all other neural elements, including the peripheral nerves and the autonomic nerves. Peripheral nerves are the essential connections between the brain and spinal cord and the body. Without nerves there is no movement or sensation. Our Wired Nerves: The Human Nerve Connectome, reviews the essential anatomy and physiology of the peripheral nerve. It introduces the reader to what neuropathies are, how pain arises from damaged nerves and how nerves might be regenerated, including new and exciting ideas over how to coax their regrowth. Written by Dr. Douglas Zochodne leading expert in the field, and first book to focus on the Peripheral nerves it will surely be an essential reference for researchers and clinicians alike. - Discusses the barriers to nerve regrowth and new strategies to reverse them - Reviews of disorders of the peripheral nerves - Exams reasons for nerve injuries - Reviews recent discoveries in nerve research

This is a unique compilation, by experts worldwide, addressing how diabetes impacts the nervous system. For example, diabetic polyneuropathy, a disorder more common than MS, Parkinson's disease, and ALS combined, is a major source of disability to diabetic persons worldwide. This book addresses diabetic polyneuropathy and how diabetes alters other parts of the nervous system. - Offers a unique emphasis on the neurological manifestations of diabetes - Provides thorough coverage of the clinical, experimental, mechanistic, therapeutic, peripheral, and central aspects of diabetic neuropathy - Edited work with chapters authored by leaders in the field around the globe – the broadest, most expert coverage available

Axon Regrowth

Peripheral nerve disorders are among the most common neurological problems that clinicians face, yet few therapies and interventions are available to stop or reverse the damage associated with them. The newly revised, Axon Regrowth: The Neurobiology of Nerve and Axon Regeneration, originally published in 2008, is fully revised and refocuses on the central nervous system axon regeneration to emphasize the commonalities and differences with peripheral nerve regeneration. This book reviews the substantial problems of axon and nerve regeneration, including molecular mechanisms and what approaches can be used to address it experimentally. Both researchers and clinicians alike will consider this a valuable resource.

Neurobiology of Diabetic Neuropathy

This volume of International Review of Neurobiology defines primary biochemical causation of diabetic complications, identifies cellular glucose transducers, balancing roles of protein kinase C and MAP kinases, and sets in context the role of apoptosis and the interactive roles of neurons and Schwann cells. It also defines the cell biology of autonomic neuropathy, considers the balanced needs of science, clinical practice, and economics in clinical trial design, provides the definitive evaluation of aldose reductase inhibitors, and explains the failure of nerve growth factor. One of the most successful series in the field of neuroscience continues its standard of excellence with this newest edition. Published since 1959, International Review of Neurobiology is a well-known series appealing to neuroscientists, clinicians, psychologists, physiologists, and pharmacologists.
