Summary:
A timely overview covering the three major types of glial cells in the central nervous system - astrocytes, microglia, and oligodendrocytes. New findings on glia biology are overturning a century of conventional thinking about how the brain operates and are expanding our knowledge about information processing in the brain. The book will present recent research findings on the role of glial cells in both healthy function and disease. It will comprehensively cover a broad spectrum of topics while remaining compact in size.
Contents:
Glial cells and the Integrity of the CNS
NG2-glia: More than Progenitor Cells
Pharmacological tools to study the role of astrocytes in neural network function
"Microglia function in the normal brain"
Physiological functions of glial cell hemichannels
Role of astrocytes in central respiratory chemoreception
Purine signaling and microglial wrapping
Oligodendrocytes, functioning in a delicate balance between high metabolic requirements and oxidative damage
Schwann cell and axon: an interlaced unit, from action potential to phenotype expression
Age-dependent changes in the activation and regulation of microglia
Astrocyte dysfunction in developmental neurometabolic diseases
Microglia in cancer: for good or for bad?
