Endocannabinoid Signaling e-bog

Thisvolume encompasses all major methodologies to interrogate endocannabinoidsystems (ECS) and endocannabinoids (eCBs) signaling. With increasing interesttowards the manifold activities of eCBs, this book discusses the chemical,biochemical, and molecular biological assays, and activity of distinct elementsof the ECS. These include membrane, nuclear receptors, biosynthetic andhydrolytic enzymes, and membrane transporters and oxidative enzymes. Written inthe highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format,chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of thenecessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratoryprotocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Timely and cutting edge, Endocannabinoid Signaling: Methods and Protocolsis a valuable resource and will help chemists, drug designers, biochemists,molecular biologists, cell biologists, pharmacologists, and (electro)physiologists navigate the mare magnum of endocannabinoid research.
