  • Gasotransmitters: Physiology and Pathophysiology

    Edited by Anton Hermann, Guzel F. Sitdikova, Thomas M. Weiger ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Since the epochal discovery of the radical and highly toxic gas nitric oxide (NO) as a signaling molecule, two other no less toxic gases – carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) – have been found to also be involved in a plethora of physiological and pathophysiological functions. The gases termed gasotransmitters play an increasingly important role in understanding how signalling into and ... Read more

  • Oxidative Neural Injury

    Edited by Sigrid C. Veasey ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Twenty-five years ago, Earl R. Stadtman, PhD discovered that specific enzymes regulating metabolism can be inactivated by oxidation [1]. He later showed that age-related oxidative modification contributes, at least in part, to age-related loss of function of the enzymes [2, 3]. Dr. Stadtman broke the ground for a new field of study to discover how oxidative stress contributes in significant ways ... Read more

  • The Catecholaminergic Innervation of the Rat Amygdala

    by Esther Asan ...
    Series Book 142 - Advances in Anatomy, Embryology and Cell Biology
    Experimental evidence indicated that catecholamines are able to modulate information processing in the amygdaloid complex. The present study provides a detailed documentation of ultrastructural and neurochmical characteristics of dopaminergic, noradrinergic, and adrenergic afferent fibers and of their target structures in central, basal and intercalated amygdaloid nuclei. ...

  • Microglia in the Regenerating and Degenerating Central Nervous System

    Edited by Wolfgang J. Streit ...
    Over the past decade, the study of microglial cells has gained increasing importance, in particular for those working in the fields of degeneration and regeneration. Microglia in the Regenerating and Degenerating CNS supports the assertion that understanding microglial biology could perhaps be pivotal for unraveling the pathogenetic mechanisms that underlie Alzheimer's disease, currently the most ...

  • Folding for the Synapse

    Edited by Vincent O'Connor, Andreas Wyttenbach ...
    Folding for the Synapse addresses the current view on how protein folding and misfolding, controlled by molecular chaperones, contribute to synapse function and dysfunction. Molecular chaperones have been studied in relation to de novo protein folding, but there is increasing awareness that chaperone function is required for the regulation of protein dynamics when functioning physiologically as an ...

    The Fastest Impulse Conduction in the Animal Kingdom

    by Ke Xu, Susumu Terakawa ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    In 1961, neurobiologists found that the conduction velocity of the nerve impulse in the giant nerve fiber of the Penaeus shrimp abdominal nerve cord was over 200 m/s, the highest speed of information transmission ever observed in the animal kingdom. The peculiar myelin sheath with its unique nodal structure and the electrical properties of the nerve fibers of the shrimp have continued to be ... Read more
