This single volume provides a comprehensive description of oligodendroglia, the neural cells responsible for myelination of axons throughout the central nervous system. Myelinated axons create the white matter (connectome) of the human brain and spinal cord, which...
Neuroglia in Neurologic and Psychiatric Disorders, Part II discusses glia relative to neurologic and psychiatric disorders, emphasizing cross-disease-glial cell dysfunctions. Driven by advances in genetics, transcriptomics, electrophysiologic and imaging techniques, as...
Neuroglia in the Healthy Nervous System, Part I provides insights into newly emerging developments in neuroglia biology, focusing on the healthy nervous system. Driven by advances in genetics, transcriptomics, electrophysiological, and imaging techniques, this volume...
The past decade has witnessed a revolution in our understanding of microglia, especially since their roles in the healthy CNS have started to unravel. These cells were shown to actively maintain health, in concert with neurons and other types of CNS cells, providing...
Diverse specialised neuroglial cells guarantee the development, preservation, and health of the central nervous system, the peripheral nervous system, the enteric nervous system, and the special senses. In the central nervous system, it is the astrocytes,...
This contributed volume discusses the multiple roles of astrocytes, which determine the progression and outcome of neuropsychiatric diseases.This emerging area of study examines the ways in which astrocytes are involved in various aspects of disease initiation,...
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the role of neuroglia in neurodegenerative diseases. Neuroglia are the most abundant cells in the nervous system and consist of several distinct cell types, such as astrocytes, oligodendrocytes,and microglia. Accumulating...
Pathophysiological states, neurological and psychiatric diseases are almost universally considered from the neurocentric point of view, with neurons being the principal cellular element of pathological process. The brain homeostasis, which lies at the fulcrum of healthy...
ATP acts as main energy source and is pivotal for numerous signaling cascades both inside the cells (by fuelling various transport systems and donating phosphate groups) and between the cells (by chemical transmission). Similarly glutamate acts as an important molecule...
Glial Physiology and Pathophysiology provides a comprehensive, advanced text on the biology and pathology of glial cells.Coverae includes: the morphology and interrelationships between glial cells and neurones in different parts of the nervous systems the cellular...
"This volume is a very valuable and much needed contribution."—Quarterly Review of Biology AT LAST - A comprehensive, accessible textbook on glial neurobiology! Glial cells are the most numerous cells in the human brain but for many years have attracted little...
