Perspectives on Vasopressin
ISBN: 9781848162945 / Angielski / Twarda / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Vasopressin is a hormone which has an increasingly important profile. Not only does it play a physiologically significant role in renal water regulation but it also has other renal actions and plays a role in overall cardiovascular control. Even more interesting is the recent growing interest in its potential effects on the brain, notably its influence on specific behaviours.This monograph about the polypeptide vasopressin covers all aspects relating to the production, control of release, and actions of this molecule within the body, including its roles as a hormone and as a central...

The Physics and Psychophysics of Music: An Introduction
ISBN: 9780387094700 / Angielski / Miękka / 229 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This introductory text deals with the physical systems and biological processes that intervene in what we broadly call "music. " We shall analyze what obj- tive, physical properties of sound patterns are associated with what subjective, psychological sensations of music. We shall describe how these sound patterns are actually produced in musical instruments, how they propagate through the environment, and how they are detected by the ear and interpreted in the brain. We shall do all this by using the physicist's language and his method of thought and analysis-without, however, using...

Animal Models of Drug Addiction

Because of increasing public concern over the ethical treatment of animals in research, we felt it incumbent upon us to include this general preface in order to indicate why we think further research using animals is necessary. Animals should only be used when suitable alternatives are not available, and humans can only be experimented upon in severely proscribed circumstances. Alternative procedures using cell or tissue culture are inadequate in any models requiring assessments of behavioral change or of...

Cardiovascular Pharmacogenetics
ISBN: 9783540402046 / Angielski / Twarda / 407 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Human Genome Project was sold to the general public largely on the basis that a complete picture of the structure of human DNA would lead to new and better medicines. These medicines would be better because they would be tailored to individual patients, maximising the chances of a therapeutic response and mi- nimising the risks of an adverse event. Taking the idea further, pundits have pre- dicted that the time will come when we could carry our DNA on a card which could be read rapidly and enable the physician to choose the best drug. This is the future. This is pharmacogenetics. When the...

Immunological Aspects of Neoplasia -- The Role of the Thymus
ISBN: 9781402021848 / Angielski / Twarda / 207 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Our work began where the greatest classical morphologists left off; their best work was the start of ours. As our work progressed, the rigidity of basic, previous embryological principles was broken down as scientific knowledge advanced. At the same time, the molecular, biological characterization of the cell surface receptor systems progressed enormously with the invention of numerous monoclonal antibodies. Thus, thymology became once again very important because the thymus is the first and central organ of the human immunological system. Then, the question of immuno-neuroendocrine...

Adenosine and Adenosine Receptors
ISBN: 9780896031630 / Angielski / Twarda / 516 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Historically, the major emphasis on the study of purinergic systems has been predominantly in the areas of physiology and gross pharmacology. The last decade has seen an exponential in crease in the number of publications related to the role of both adenosine and A TP in mammalian tissue function, a level of interest that has evolved from a more molecular focus on the identity of adenosine and A TP receptor subtypes and the search for selective ligands and development of radioligand binding assays by Fred Bruns and colleagues (especially that for A receptors) that played z a highly...

Phase Resetting in Medicine and Biology: Stochastic Modelling and Data Analysis
ISBN: 9783540381594 / Angielski / Miękka / 329 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Synchronization processes are of great interest and importance in biology, medicine and physics. In particular, for the comprehension of brain function- ing it appears inevitable that one should analyze neuronal synchronization processes. This book presents a new understanding of how a stimulus in- fluences synchronization patterns of a population of oscillators. On the one hand, a variety of stimulation-induced dynamical phenomena will be pre- sented; on the other hand, new data analysis tools will be developed which will serve as a link between theory and experiment. In this way it will be...

Progressive Supranuclear Palsy: Diagnosis, Pathology, and Therapy
ISBN: 9783211825419 / Angielski / Miękka / 293 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When Steele, Richardson and Olszewski described Progressive Supranuclear Palsy in Archives of Neurology in 1964, it was thought to be a rare disease. Recent pathological studies of large numbers of patients diagnosed as having Parkinson's disease in life have highlighted the fact that at least one in ten of such cases have some other condition. Progressive Supranuclear Palsy is one of the commonest alternative diagnoses. This book is therefore a timely review of present understanding of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. Much has been learnt about this sporadic illness of middle and late life...

Advances and Technical Standards in Neurosurgery
ISBN: 9783211140277 / Angielski / Twarda / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Epilepsy surgery is defined as any neurosurgical intervention whose pri- mary objective is to relieve medically intractable epilepsy (European Fed- eration of Neurological Societies Task Force 2000). The aim of epilepsy surgery is to reduce the number and intensity of seizures, minimise neuro- logical morbidity and antiepileptic drug (AED) toxicity, and improve quality of life. By definition, epilepsy surgery does not include normal surgical treatment of intracranial lesions where the primary goal is to di- agnose and possibly remove the pathological target, often an advancing tumour. In...
