Portada
Wiley, 21 de des. 2001 - 252 pàgines
Recent progress has led to a better understanding of the molecularstructure of sodium channels, how they work and the mechanisms thatrestrict their expression to particular cell types.

This book explains how these channels are modulated in variouspathological states to enable the development of therapeuticstrategies based on sodium channel restoration.

The authors present the most current research on sodium channelsand
neuronal function.

  • Brings together both the basic biology and biophysics withdetailed consideration of the medical applications in chronic painand epilepsy. 
  • Includes coverage of channelopathies, sodium channel geneexpression, the modulation of sodium channels, and molecularmechanisms of gating and drug block of sodium channels.
