Encyclopedia Of Neurodegenerative Diseases Volume Iii (integrated Processes) [Hardcover]

Integrated processes of neurodegenerative diseases have been provided in this all-inclusive book. It concentrates on biological mechanisms and neuoprotection of disease growth. It lays stress on the fundamental biological processes of neurodegeneration in distinctive neurodegenerative diseases. Although the main etiology for distinct neurodegenerative diseases is not same, there is a great level of similarity in the disease processes. The book introduces the impacts of toxic proteins, oxidative stress and intracellular calcium on distinct biological signaling pathways or molecular machineries to provide information to neurons to go through degeneration and also describes how neighboring glial cells modulate or promote neurodegeneration. This book will serve as a good source of information for college students, researchers, health care professionals and even patients' families, relatives as well as friends.
