Microglia in Health and Disease

Edited by Marie-Ève Tremblay, Amanda Sierra ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
These past few years have witnessed a revolution in our understanding of microglia, especially since their roles in the healthy central nervous system (CNS) have started to unravel. These cells were shown to actively maintain health, in concert with neurons and other types of CNS cells, providing further insight into their involvement with diseases.

Brain Immune System Signal Molecules in Protection from Aerobic and Anaerobic Infections

by Armen A. Galoyan ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
Proline-rich polypeptides - in particular (PRP-1) galarmin and its structural analogues – are, when isolated from the neurosecretory granules of neurohypophysis of humans and animals, a new type of hypothalamic peptides. They work against aerobic, anaerobic, gram-positive, and gram-negative microorganisms in vivo, and do not have etiotropic properties. They are unique and capable substitutes to ... Read more

Culture and Neural Frames of Cognition and Communication

Edited by Shihui Han, Ernst Pöppel ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
Cultural neuroscience combines brain imaging techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging and event-related brain potentials with methods of social and cultural psychology to investigate whether and how cultures influence the neural mechanisms of perception, attention, emotion, social cognition, and other human cognitive processes. The findings of cultural neuroscience studies improve ... Read more

The Aging Auditory System

Edited by Sandra Gordon-Salant, Robert D. Frisina, Arthur N. Popper, Richard R. Fay ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
This volume brings together noted scientists who study presbycusis from the perspective of complementary disciplines, for a review of the current state of knowledge on the aging auditory system. Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is one of the top three most common chronic health conditions affecting individuals aged 65 years and older. The high prevalence of age-related hearing loss compels ... Read more

Ghrelin in Health and Disease

Edited by Roy G. Smith, Michael O. Thorner ...

Series series Medicine (R0)
Ghrelin, the endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) receptor, is critical in the control of food intake and energy balance. The ghrelin receptors are now known to have important physiological properties as modulators of growth hormone release, appetite, glucose homeostasis, metabolism, immune function, neurotransmitter activity, cognitive function and neurodegeneration. ...

Dynamics of Visual Motion Processing

Neuronal, Behavioral, and Computational Approaches

Edited by Guillaume S. Masson, Uwe J. Ilg ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
Motion processing is an essential piece of the complex brain machinery that allows us to reconstruct the 3D layout of objects in the environment, to break camouflage, to perform scene segmentation, to estimate the ego movement, and to control our action. Although motion perception and its neural basis have been a topic of intensive research and modeling the last two decades, recent experimental ... Read more

Loudness

Edited by Mary Florentine, Arthur N. Popper, Richard R. Fay ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
Loudness is the primary psychological correlate of intensity. When the intensity of a sound increases, loudness increases. However, there exists no simple one-to-one correspondence between loudness and intensity; loudness can be changed by modifying the frequency or the duration of the sound, or by adding background sounds. Loudness also changes with the listener’s cognitive state. Loudness ... Read more
