Stress: Neural, Endocrine and Molecular Studies

by Richard McCarty (Editor), Greti Aguilera (Editor), Esther L. Sabban (Editor), Richard Kvetnansky (Editor)

Overview

Distilling information from the Seventh Symposium on Catecholamines and other Neurotransmitters in Stress held in the Slovak Republic, Stress: Neural, Endocrine and Molecular Studies presents the results of current research into stress focusing on catecholamines and other neurotransmitter molecules. Topics covered include peripheral influences on the stress response, central influences on the stress response, molecular regulation during stress, and more. This text is suitable for graduates and researchers in the disciplines of neuroscience, endocrinology, medicine, immunology, cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, pharmacology, and stress research.
