Description

Neuroglia in the Healthy Nervous System, Part I provides insights into newly emerging developments in neuroglia biology, focusing on the healthy nervous system. Driven by advances in genetics, transcriptomics, electrophysiological, and imaging techniques, this volume bridges the gap between neuroglia basic science and neuroglia clinical research. The book provides an overview of neuroglia biology, highlighting emerging technologies used to unravel the role of neuroglial cells in specific brain functions. The book also discusses strategies using neuroglia as a therapeutic target. – Provides an overview of neuroglia biology – Identifies normal neuroglia function in the healthy nervous system – Includes animal and human research – Discusses transcriptomic, electrophysiological, and imaging techniques to study neuroglia – Covers research using neuroglia as a therapeutic target
