Molecular neurotoxicology : environmental agents and transcription-transduction coupling By Nasser H Zawia
2004 | 236 Pages | ISBN: 0415280311 | PDF | 5 MB
Content: Molecular Neurotoxicology: Environmental Agents and Transcription-Transduction Coupling explores the changes in gene expression that follow exposure to neurotoxicants, and deciphers signal transduction or transcription coupling that is altered by the same exposure. Renowned contributors from the fields of neuroscience and environmental toxicology address the role of specific transcription factor families in neurotoxicity, discuss models of neurodegeneration and the role of DNA repair in the nervous system, and reflect upon the impact of neurotoxicants on various cell signaling intermediates.
