Neurobiology of Depression
Major depressive disorders have recently been associated with impairments in signaling pathways that regulate neuroplasticity and cell survival. Agents designed to directly target molecules in these pathways hold promise as new therapeutics for depression. With the collaboration of the most prestigious international specialists in biochemistry, mol
Excitatory Amino Acids and Neuronal Plasticity
Proceedings of the European Neuroscience Association Satellite Symposium held in Fillerval, France, August 27-31, 1989
Textbook of Traumatic Brain Injury
The Textbook of Traumatic Brain Inury has been written in such a manner that it will benefit young trainee neurosurgeons, trauma experts, medical students, teachers and also academicians practicing in the area of head injury and its management. Fifty-six chapters in this book includes all important academic and clinical aspects involved in management of head injury. Each chapter is written and reviewed by the foremost authorities in neuropsychiatry, neurology, rehabilitation medicine, and the other specialties who assess, diagnose, and treat these patients. It addresses incidence, epidemiology.
Integrated Systems of the CNS, Part III
This book represents the third part of Integrated Systems of the CNS in the Handbook of Chemical Neuroanatomy. Part I is concerned with limbic regions and the hypothalamus, as well as with the retina. Part II contains reviews of central pathways associated with four major sensory systems. Part III is dedicated to W.J.H. Nauta, best remembered for the first selective silver implantation technique for dealing with degenerating axons. The volume is divided into three sections: the cerebellum, chemoarchitecture and anatomy; the basal ganglia; and the olfactory system. An excellent volume to keep pace with this challenging and rapidly developing field.
Domitian’s Rome and the Augustan Legacy
Combines material and literary cultural approaches to the study of the reception of Augustus and his age during the reign of the emperor Domitian
Glutamate, Cell Death and Memory
In the past few years, the Fondation IPSEN has been increasing its activity in the neurosciences, especially by supporting researchers working on Alzheimer's disease. This interest in the subject is demonstrated by a prize and a fellowship, which have been awarded each year since 1985, a monthly newsletter, and a series of Colloques Medecine et Recherche and their proceedings which are distributed world-wide. Since 1990, our effort in the field of neuroscience has been considerably enhanced. A new series of Colloques Medecine et Recherche has been devoted to this topic. Like the meetings on Alzheimer's disease, this series will deal with the most current research. Glutamate -the subject we c...
Excitatory Amino Acids and Second Messenger Systems
This book deals with the mechanisms through which glutamate, the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system, modifies neuronal membrane functions and intraneuronal functions. Discussed are the hypothesis that the glutamate receptor signal may be processed by archidonic acid, nitric oxide, Ca 2+ and protein kinases. A key routefor glutamate receptors in synaptic plasticity and neuronal degeneration is beeing increasingly recognized. This is one of the most important new areas of endeavor by neurobiologists. The book, written by some of the most wellknown scientists in this field, provides a comprehensive reviewof conceptual approaches along with experiments showing a link between excitation mediated by glutamate and second messenger systems.
Spinal Cord Monitoring
During the last decades, research on spinal cord has attracted a great deal of attention because of problems such as sensory-motor and autonomic dysfunctions associated with traumatic and other injuries. Recording of spinal cord evoked potentials is one of the most promising approaches to understand the spinal cord function. However, the details of the evoked potentials and their significance in various pathological conditions are not yet fully characterized. This book summarizes new findings in the field of electrophysiology and relates this knowledge to pathology and regeneration research. It is the first one which deals in great detail with various ways to monitor spinal cord function in ...
The Visually Responsive Neuron
This timely new volume presents broad-based and wide-ranging contributions on all aspects of vision. The material is grouped for presentation in a logical fashion in five main themes: peripheral processing; sensory integration in superior colliculus; organization of visual projections; development and plasticity; and neuronal encoding and visually guided behavior.The material spans from molecules to cognition, including overt behavior, and synaptic and membrane levels of analysis. The species studied also range over diverse phyla, while contributors too form a diverse group representing Europe, North America, and Asia. The Visually Responsive Neuron is an exciting and informative addition to the well known Progress in Brain Research series.
Long-term Potentiation
Following the successful format of the first volume on long-term potentiation--a leading candidate for the neuronal basis of learning and memory--Volume 2 brings together the most recent data and hypotheses by top neuroscientists regarding the mechanisms of this phenomenon and of long-term depression (LTD).Following the successful format of the first volume on long- term potentiation--a leading candidate for the neuronal basis of learning and memory--Volume 2 brings together the most recent data and hypotheses by top neuroscientists regarding the mechanisms of this phenomenon and of long-term depression (LTD).
