Uses an approach that integrates molecular and neurochemical behavioral applications in translational animal behavior models and clinical applications

Presents the work of distinguished researchers in the field

Includes the latest reviews of nicotine research on the molecular, neurochemical, translational, and clinical levels of analysis

Discusses the function of neural nicotinic systems and the significance for diseases such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer抯 disease, Tourette抯 syndrome, and ADHD

Nicotine research has been conducted for the better part of a century, but with the discovery of the relationship of nicotinic systems to Alzheimer抯 disease, the differentiation of nicotinic receptor subtypes, and the development of novel nicotinic ligands, the field of nicotine research has exploded. This book will provide you reference to the latest research methods and findings concerning nicotinic neural systems.



Featuring a unique approach, Nicotinic Receptors in the Nervous System provides integrated coverage of cutting-edge research concerning neuronal nicotinic systems relevant to smoking addiction and cognitive dysfunction. By bringing together molecular and neurochemical applications, this book provides the key to understanding function and dysfunction of nicotinic systems and how they are significant for disease, addiction, and the development of novel drug treatments.



Within the next several years, it is very promising that clinical research will support the use of nicotinic treatments for addiction, pain, and cognitive and motor dysfunction. Nicotinic Receptors in the Nervous System provides you with the basic mechanistic background for these treatments as well as the functional assessment necessary to determine therapeutic effects.
