From Book News, Inc.
Transmission of the molecules glutamate and GABA plays a key role in the inhibition or excitation of signals in the central nervous system and are therefore of interest to those seeking drugs for treating central nervous system diseases. Structures a nd functions of ionotropic and metabotropic receptors related to these molecules are detailed and identified. Also discussed are ligand-receptor interactions of recombinant binding. Purposeful modifications of molecular structures are examined and their possibilities for therapeutic clinical use are discussed.Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Book Description
The aim of this book is, by the help of specialists in the field, to convey recent discoveries in a framework of the basic concepts in the field of glutamate and GABA receptor research. The book is suitable for postgraduate students studying ligand gated channels but also beneficial for industrial and academic research scientists in both the glutamate and GABA field.
