Endocannabinoid Signaling

Methods and Protocols

285 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This
volume encompasses all major methodologies to interrogate endocannabinoid
systems (ECS) and endocannabinoids (eCBs) signaling. With increasing interest
towards the manifold activities of eCBs, this book discusses the chemical,
biochemical, and molecular biological assays, and activity of distinct elements
of the ECS. These include membrane, nuclear receptors, biosynthetic and
hydrolytic enzymes, and membrane transporters and oxidative enzymes. Written in
the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format,
chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the
necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory
protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Timely and cutting edge, Endocannabinoid Signaling: Methods and Protocols
is a valuable resource and will help chemists, drug designers, biochemists,
molecular biologists, cell biologists, pharmacologists, and (electro)
physiologists navigate the mare magnum of endocannabinoid research.
