Can I read Neuron-Glia Interrelations During Phylogeny : I. Phylogeny and Ontogeny of Glial Cells on EtoBox?
Neuron-Glia Interrelations During Phylogeny : I. Phylogeny and Ontogeny of Glial Cells by Amico Bignami (auth.), Antonia Vernadakis, Betty I. Roots (eds.) is a nonfiction available to read on EtoBox.
What is Neuron-Glia Interrelations During Phylogeny : I. Phylogeny and Ontogeny of Glial Cells about?
<p>Leading international authorities report on their in vivo studies of neuron-glia interactions in animals with simple nervous systems (insects, fish, amphibians, and reptiles). Their work amounts to an in-depth account of many of the principal functions of glial cells: myelination, regulation of ionic environment, neurotransmitter compartmentation and neurotransmitter receptors, blood-brain barrier, regeneration, and aging. Part I examines the origin and role of glial cells during development across the phylogenetic spectrum, including the evolution of their particular functions. Part II discusses the physiological and metabolic interactions between neurons and glia, again across phylogenetic groups.</p><p>Neuron-Glia Interrelations During Phylogeny illuminates the evolution of the nervous system and expands our knowledge of the mechanisms involved in regeneration and central nervous system repair. It constitutes a virtual encyclopedia of up-to-date findings concerning the significant roles played by glial cells in neuronal development and function.</p> <p>The book contains black-and-white illustrations.</p>
