内容説明
Advances in Brain Vasopressin elucidates the functions of the regulatory peptide vasopressin in the nervous system, and reviews the current status of this field at different levels.It deals with the cell biology and anatomy of the neurons that produce vasopressin in the brain, and provides an overview on the receptors of vasopressin and the signal transduction pathways that they activate, including the cellular responses that are triggered by vasopressin. Reviews are presented on the modulation of behavior induced by vasopressin in a number of different contexts, such as sex-linked and steroid-dependent behaviors, social behaviors, and learning and memory.Furthermore, the volume deals with several controversial issues in the field by presenting overlapping chapters from different research groups in order to provide the reader with current views.Highly relevant and useful, for those working on this "first" neuropeptide, and for young investigators entering the field, and in addition, shows how important a multidisciplinary approach is to unravelling the function of a neuropeptide in the brain.

内容説明
This volume is a cross-disciplinary reference on the behavioural, neurobiological and clinical aspects of eye movements. It includes a large body of new empirical work as well as the principal theoretical viewpoints of leading research groups in this field. Topics discussed in the book include the role of cortical and subcortical brain areas in control of saccadic eye movements, attentional mechanisms in guiding smooth pursuit eye movements, neural mechanisms related to eye-hand coordination, oculomotor deficits in psychiatric disorders, neural mechanisms related to hand-eye coordination and oculomotor deficits in psychiatric disorders, Parkinson's disease and head injury patients. this book addresses a wide audience and will be particularily of interest to researchers in neurophysiology and neuropsychology of vision.
