Neurocytochemical Methods

This reference work aims to provide up-to-date descriptions of the most recent and powerful neurocytochemical methods. The possibilities, limitations, technical difficulties and applications of these techniques and of their possible combinations on the same tissue are emphasized.

"Neurocytochemical Methods" provides researchers, postgraduate students, neurologists and biological laboratory staff with accurate and up-to-date descriptions of the most recent and powerful neurocytochemical methods: localization and co-localization of neurotransmitters; study of their cellular and sub-cellular interactions; histological and ultrastructural detection of receptors; quantification of mediators; hodology and 3-D reconstruction of neurons; cytofunctional approach of axonal transport, of genic expression and of physiological effects of neurotransmitters (PET, voltage-or ion-sensitive dyes). The possibilities, limits, technical difficulties and applications of these techniques and of their possible combinations on the same tissue are emphasized.
