The Pentose Phosphate Pathway
The Pentose Phosphate Pathway aims to explore the pentose phosphate cycle and the practical techniques applied in its investigation. The main focus of the book is the pentose phosphate cycle in animals as well as microorganisms, and does not discuss the one related to photosynthesis. The book covers the formulation of the pathway, its types, and its alternative formulations; the preparation, processes, and analysis of the pathway; and the enzymes involved. Also covered in the book are the intermediates in intact cells and tissues; distribution of enzymes among different tissues and species; the operation, regulation, and overall control of the pathway; and the clinical, nutritional, and metabolic aspects of the pathway. The text is recommended for biologists and biochemists who would like to understand further the pentose phosphate pathway and the processes related to it.
Drug Discovery for Schizophrenia
Following progress in schizophrenia since 2015, this new volume covers the advancing knowledge of scientists and clinicians in drug discovery. The book enhances our understanding of pathological neural communication between the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS) in patients with schizophrenia. Although 75% of neural information passes through the PNS, interactions between the PNS and CNS in schizophrenia remain understudied. Consequently, the current view of schizophrenia requires improvement to facilitate diagnostics and drug development. In this context, this second volume presents current evidence that views schizophrenia as a mild abnormal maldevelopment of ...

Advanced Patch-Clamp Analysis for Neuroscientists
This volume presents current adaptations of the patch-clamp technique to neuroscience. Chapters focus on in-vivo recordings, voltage-gated channel recording and analysis, dendritic and axonal recordings, synaptic current recording and analysis, advanced fluorescent techniques, optogenetics and voltage-sensitive dye imaging, and finally channel and neuronal modeling. Written for the popular Neuromethods series, chapters include the kind of detail and key implementation advice that ensures successful results in the laboratory. Authoritative and practical, Advanced Patch-Clamp Analysis for Neuroscientists aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.
Gut Peptides
Provides a comprehensive approach to gastrointestinal hormones, for clinicians and scientists who are interested in hormonal regulation of the gastrointestinal tract. The first section discusses general issues related to peptides as messengers, including receptors and signal transduction and control of gene expression. The second section presents the biochemical and physiological features of the gastrointestinal hormones and neuropeptides. The third section integrates these peptides into physiological and pathophysiological regulatory pathways of the gut. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Neurodegeneration
Most textbooks on neurodegenerative disorders have used a classification scheme based upon either clinical syndromes or anatomical distribution of the pathology. In contrast, this book looks to the future and uses a classification based upon molecular mechanisms, rather than clinical or anatomical boundaries. Major advances in molecular genetics and the application of biochemical and immunocytochemical techniques to neurodegenerative disorders have generated this new approach. Throughout most of the current volume, diseases are clustered according to the proteins that accumulate within cells (e.g. tau, α-synuclein and TDP-43) and in the extracellular compartments (e.g. β-amyloid and prion ...
The Yeasts
The Yeasts: A Taxonomic Study is a three-volume book that covers the taxonomic aspect of yeasts. The main goal of this book is to provide important information about the identification of yeasts. It also discusses the growth tests that can be used to identify different species of yeasts, and it examines how the more important species of yeasts provide information for the selection of species needed for biotechnology. • Volume 1 discusses the identification, classification and importance of yeasts in the field of biotechnology. • Volume 2 focuses on the identification and classification of ascomycetous yeasts. • Volume 3 deals with the identification and classification of basidiomycetous yeasts, along with the genus Prototheca. - High-quality photomicrographs and line drawings - Detailed phylogenetic trees - Up-to-date, clearly presented yeast taxonomy and systematic, easy-to-use reference sequence accession numbers to allow for correct identification
The Physiology of Cognitive Processes
This title includes the following features: A new and unique volume on one of the most exciting and fast moving research actitivies within the cognitive science; Includes chapters by world leaders in the fields of psychology and neuroscience; Written to be accessible to students andresearchers within cognitive neuroscience
Nutrition and Brain
This volume provides a survey of the links between nutrition and the brain. It examines many of the mechanisms by which diet and individual nutrients are known to modify brain development, biochemistry and function, and evaluates current practices in the use of the diet for the prevention and treatment of disorders affecting brain function. It also highlights the need to consider issues related to brain function in the development and evolution of national policies for treating nutritional deficiencies and excesses. Written by leading investigators and clinicians, this publication will help practitioners, clinical investigators and scientists appreciate the broad opportunities awaiting investigation, and ultimately, clinical applications, in this dynamic and expanding area of investigation.
