It covers what they do, how they do it and how their activity is involved in brain function and affected by drugs and disease. The contents include: An overview of neurotransmitter function including their release, effects on neuronal excitability and receptor interaction Detailed description of the synaptic physiology, pharmacology and possible brain function of each neurotransmitter with particular emphasis on acetylcholine, glutamate, GABA, noradrenaline, dopamine, 5 hydroxytryptamine and the peptides, purines, histamine, steroids and nitric oxide An evaluation on how the different neurotransmitters may be involved in the initiation and maintenance of certain brain disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, schizophrenia, depression, anxiety and dementia A review of neurotransmitters in sleep and consciousness and in the social problems of drugs and abuse Neurotransmitters, Drugs and Brain Function provides insights that will prove invaluable to students and researchers involved in pharmacology, neuroscience, medicine and psychology.NeurotransmittersPathophysiologyNeurotransmitter receptorsBrainPsychopharmacologyPhysiologyNeurotransmitter AgentsSynaptic TransmissionBrainBrain ChemistryCentral Nervous SystemMolecular Mechanisms of Pharmacological ActionBiochemical PhenomenaElectrophysiological ProcessesNervous System Physiological ProcessesMetabolic PhenomenaSignal TransductionPhysiological Effects of DrugsBiological Science DisciplinesPhysiological ProcessesBiochemical ProcessesPharmacologic ActionsNervous SystemChemical PhenomenaNatural Science DisciplinesCell Physiological ProcessesElectrophysiological PhenomenaNervous System Physiological PhenomenaChemical ProcessesMusculoskeletal and Neural Physiological PhenomenaAnatomyChemical Actions and UsesPhysiological PhenomenaCell Physiological PhenomenaNeuroscienceHILCCHuman Anatomy & PhysiologyHILCCHealth & Biological SciencesHILCCNeurotransmittersPathophysiologyNeurotransmitter receptorsBrainPsychopharmacologyPhysiologyNeurotransmitter AgentsSynaptic TransmissionBrainBrain ChemistryCentral Nervous SystemMolecular Mechanisms of Pharmacological ActionBiochemical PhenomenaElectrophysiological ProcessesNervous System Physiological ProcessesMetabolic PhenomenaSignal TransductionPhysiological Effects of DrugsBiological Science DisciplinesPhysiological ProcessesBiochemical ProcessesPharmacologic ActionsNervous SystemChemical PhenomenaNatural Science DisciplinesCell Physiological ProcessesElectrophysiological PhenomenaNervous System Physiological PhenomenaChemical ProcessesMusculoskeletal and Neural Physiological PhenomenaAnatomyChemical Actions and UsesPhysiological PhenomenaCell Physiological PhenomenaNeuroscienceHuman Anatomy & PhysiologyHealth & Biological Sciences612.8/042Webster Roy1670876Farrant MarkGibb AlasdairPQKBBOOK9910829852503321Neurotransmitters and Drugs in Brain Function4033029UNINA
