Neurodegenerative disorders and malignant tumors are usually resistant to any treatment, and the mortality rate is very high for persons with these conditions. Accordingly, finding effective treatments for these diseases is one of the most serious issues for medicine in the 21st century. In this volume, the molecular mechanisms of ...
This work examines recent advances in excitotoxic mechanisms, calcium and cell death, acidosis and cell death, inflammation and the immune system, trophic mechanisms and protein synthesis, and changes in gene expression. Dicussion includes glutamate and neurodegeneration in vitro; the involvement of glutamate actions on astrocytes; the mechanisms ...
Containing papers from the Sendai International Symposium on Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms of Cardiovascular Regulation, this book focuses on molecular mechanisms of ion-channel regulation, mechanisms of vascular and cardiac regulation and pathophysiological modulation of regulatory mechanisms.
This volume reviews recent findings on the regulation of exocytotic release of neurotransmitters from nerve terminals. Leading international investigators examine the properties and composition of the vesicles that store neurotransmitters and the molecular and cellular mechanisms that cause a vesicle to release transmitters in response to a nerve ...
