Description

Drawn from such diverse disciplines as biochemistry, pharmacology, cell biology, anatomy and neurology, this collection of papers summarizes well-established information on phospholipids in nervous tissues, discussing major problems in certain areas and examining the directions of future research. The book outlines recent advances in analytical methodology pertinent to phospholipids, and explains the enzymatic transformations of phospholipids in brain and nerve cells and on changes in phospholipid distribution and metabolism during development and aging of the nervous system.
