Neural Lipid Signalling (Perspectives in Translational Cell Biology)

Neural Lipid Signalling offers new insights into the role of lipid intermediates in cell signaling. Due to advances in cell biology, synaptic physiology and receptor pharmacology that demonstrate that lipids play broad informational roles in the central nervous system, this publication provides researchers with the tools and concepts needed to navigate the increasingly important world of lipid signaling.

• Provides basic concepts about the signaling roles of lipid-derived messengers
• Orients the reader in the complex world of lipid identification and quantification
• Offers a series of authoritative chapters by recognized leaders in the field of lipid signaling
• Includes a lipid glossary (in the Appendix)
