Description
This work, presenting the proceedings of a symposium held in Princeton, New Jersey in May 1989, focuses on three areas of central nervous system research that have common molecular mechanisms. The book examines novel therapeutic approaches to epilepsy, anxiety and cerebral ischemia, with particular emphasis on experimental studies involving excitation amino acid antagonists and benzodiazepines. In keeping with the therapeutic approach of this work, each section offers a comprehensive overview that ties together the existing and future trends in therapy, and various mechanistic approaches in the fields of anticonvulsants, anxiolytics and cerebroprotection. It offers specific therapeutic information on the use of such compounds as MK 801, serenics, lazaroids and brain anti-edema agents, as well as practical information on the clinical process.
