Adenosine in the Nervous System

Adenosine in the Nervous System

Adenosine in the Nervous System, edited by T. W. Stone, explores the physiological and biochemical roles of adenosine in the brain and nervous system. The book examines how adenosine contributes to neuronal communication, neurotransmission, and the regulation of nervous system activity. It provides insights into adenosine receptors, their mechanisms of action, and their relevance to neurological processes and disorders. This reference is valuable for students, researchers, and professionals in neuroscience, neuropharmacology, and biomedical science.
