Produktbeschreibung

This volume discusses the latest techniques and methodologies used in the neurotrophin field to study the physiology of the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). The book provides the tools essential to any researcher that intends to explore the peculiar regulation of this neurotrophin from gene expression to its release and the signaling by TrkB receptors, as well as to study the neuronal responses to BDNF or the role of neurotrophin in various neurological diseases. In Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory.

Cutting edge and comprehensive, Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor(BDNF) is a valuable resource for researchers who want to further study the diversity of physiological roles of this important growth factor.
