First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
The ubiquitous presence of glutamate and GABA receptors in the nervous system makes these receptor systems pivotal to our understanding of neurotransmission. Cloning of the molecular components of these receptor systems has provided insights to the selectivity of many drugs and detailed characterisation at the molecular level is emerging. Moreover,
Regulation of glucose at the biochemical level affects every area of the brain, and has impact from cellular to behavioral brain function. It plays an important role in diseases such as diabetes, stroke, schizophrenia and drug abuse as well as in normal and dysfunctional memory and cognition. This volume represents a thorough examination of all the major issues that are relevant to glucose metabolism by brain cells in relation to disease, combining basic research and clinical findings in a single, indispensable reference. Key Features * Serves as an essential reference on glucose metabolism in the brain * Presents authoritative accounts by leading researchers in the field * Includes thorough reviews with provocative sections on future directions
Published since 1959, International Review of Neurobiology is a well-known series appealing to neuroscientists, clinicians, psychologists, physiologists, and pharmacologists. Led by an internationally renowned editorial board, this important serial publishes both eclectic volumes made up of timely reviews and thematic volumes that focus on recent progress in a specific area of neurobiology research. This volume is a collection of articles covering recent advances in the field of neurobiology. Topics covered include behavioral mechanisms and the neurobiology of conditioned sexual responding; NMDA receptors in alcoholism; processing and representation of species-specific communication calls in the auditory system of bats; central nervous system control of micturition; the structure and physiology of the rat auditory system; and neurobiology of cat and human sexual behavior.

DNA array technology is a technique for studying gene expression by comparing samples of different genes. The result is an enormous amount of data that must be carefully analyzed in order for it to be useful and meaningful. This book examines both data analysis and techniques for ensuring optimal experimental conditions. The array approach has applications in a number of model systems, including development, learning and drug abuse. In addition, the technique has applications in a number of neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, and neurological cancers.
