Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Technologies

This volume provides properties, biological function, methods,
and approaches for manipulating nAChRs in different organisms. Nicotinic
Acetylcholine Receptor Technologies guides readers through molecular
techniques and behavioral tests used to investigate nicotinic drugs,
chronoamperometry, emerging technologies and methods for the analysis of
nAChRs, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), fluorescence techniques, spectral
confocal, allosteric modulators of a7-nAChRs, and a comprehensive evolutional
relation for most nAChR subunits, in both vertebrate and invertebrate species.
Written for the popular Neuromethods series, chapters include the
kind of detail and key implementation advice that ensures successful results in
the laboratory.



Authoritative and practical, Nicotinic Acetylcholine
Receptor Technologies aims to ensure successful results in the
further study of this vital field.
