This volume is complementary to two earlier volumes in the series, Volumes 4 and 9. An excellent group of authors, each expert in their respective areas, address the diversity of neuropeptides and their receptors and have produced an excellent and well-illustrated state-of-the-art report. The number of putative transmitters in the central nervous system has increased dramatically during the last two decades. Extensive mapping studies on these compounds have been carried out in adult brain, especially in the rat. This present volume gives a detailed description of various stages, and comprehens...
This volume is complementary to two earlier volumes in the series, Volumes 4 and 9.
An excellent group of authors, each expert in their respective areas, address the diversity of neuropeptides and their receptors and have produced an excellent and well-illustrated state-of-the-art report.
The number of putative transmitters in the central nervous system has increased dramatically during the last two decades. Extensive mapping studies on these compounds have been carried out in adult brain, especially in the rat. This present volume gives a detailed description of various stages, and comprehensive overviews of the development/ontogenetic profiles of many of these compounds.
These well-organized chapters will help utilize and deal with the abundant knowledge on this topic as well as to incorporate this knowledge for future advances.
Table of contents:
I. Localization of angiotensin receptor binding sites in the rat brain (A.M. Allen, G. Paxinos, K.F. Song and F.A.O. Mendelsohn). II. Localization of atrial natriuretic peptide B and C receptors in rat brain (J.M. Saavedra, S. Zorad and K. Tsutsumi). III. Bombesin/GRP receptors (T.W. Moody, E. Wada and J. Battey). IV. Calcitonin- and calcitonin gene-releated peptide: receptor binding sites in the central nervous system (G. Skofitsch and D.M. Jacobowitz). V. Corticotropin-releasing hormone receptors (E.B. de Souza). VI. Galanin binding sites in the central nervous system (T. Melander, C. Köhler, S. Nilsson, T. Hökfelt. E. Brodin, E. Theodorsson and T. Bartfai). VII. Gonadotropin releasing hormone receptors in rat brain (L. Jennes and P.M. Conn). VIII. Brain neuropeptide Y receptors: distribution and possible relevance to function (R. Quirion and J-C. Martel). IX. Vasopressin and oxytocin receptors in the rat brain (E. Tribollet). X. Somatostatin receptors (S. Krantic, R. Quirion and G. Uhl). XI. Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) receptors (P.J. Magistretti, J-L. Martin, P.R. Hof and J.M. Palacios). Subject index.
