Summary:

This book covers a wide range of neuroreceptor topics, including receptor endocytosis and signaling and the role of neuroreceptors in health and disease conditions. It focuses on various important nervous system receptors and their biomedical applications, especially receptor signaling. The book provides a look into the current developments of various neuroreceptors responsible for pathophysiological conditions. It is a valuable, cutting-edge, in-depth reference on neuroreceptors, featuring clearly written chapters from major contributors in the field. The central aim is to aid future investigators, researchers, students, and stakeholders to perform their research with greater ease. This book provides an excellent basis from which scientific knowledge can grow, widen, and accelerate receptor biology tools toward biomedical applications.
