Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Glia Cells and Their Role in Maintenance, Protection, and Development of the Central Nervous System offers a clear, concise, and up-to-date overview of the essential functions that glial cells play in the organization, operation, and regeneration of the nervous system. Far from being mere neuronal support elements, glial cells emerge in this volume as active and versatile participants capable of guiding neurogenesis, modulating brain plasticity, responding to tissue injury, and influencing the progression or containment of neurological disorders. Drawing on contributions from international specialists, this book brings together recent advances in molecular biology, physiology, and clinical neuroscience, offering readers a multidisciplinary perspective that highlights the roles of astrocytes, microglia, radial glia, and oligodendrocytes. Its balanced and accessible approach makes this work a valuable resource for biomedical researchers, professionals, and students seeking to understand the cellular mechanisms underlying the development, maintenance, and repair of the nervous system. With clear explanations, key concepts, and an emphasis on the therapeutic potential of glial cells, this volume stands as an indispensable reference for anyone interested in one of the most dynamic and promising areas of contemporary neuroscience. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
