Synopsis

This book focuses on the signalling mechanisms of neurotransmitter and hormone receptors, including specific practical guidance in the measurement of the main varieties of receptor response. It features contributions from some of the most active scientists in their diverse fields, providing a guide to the science behind the protocols. The only book to bring together this wide range of techniques in a focused, coherent format, this volume is of great use on its own or as part of a trilogy that includes Receptor Biochemistry and Receptor-Ligand Interactions.

About this title

Review

`It is the first volume of its kind to provide practical instruction for measurement of the main varieties of receptor response, as well as a guide to the science behind the methods. As such it will be a useful bench companion for researchers and advanced students in biochemistry, pharmocology, neuroscience and molecular biology.'Anticancer Research 'it will be a useful bench companion for researchers and advanced students in biochemistry, pharmacology, neuroscience, and molecular biology' Anticancer Researcher 12:(1992) 'Dr. Hulme has edited this book in a very clear manner such that the various chapters, although written by different authors, appear in very similar style. This is a most important job for editors of such practical volumes and makes the reading of the book much more easy ... it is, typically of the practical approach series, extremely good value for money.' Robin E. Leake, FEB Letters, Volume 297, number 3, February 1992 'As with other volumes in this series, the accent is on the methodology and practical details, which are very helpful.' International Journal of Biochemistry '... I highly recommend this book for all students and researchers working in the field. The reasonable price should allow many labs to acquire this very useful book.' Methods in Molecular and Cellular Biology 'the methods and protocols are accurate and well described and should allow a newcomer to use them as such ... I highly recommend this book for all students and researchers working in the field ... The reasonable price should allow many labs to acquire this very useful book.'
