Pressestimmen
This is an up-to-date look at these hypothalamic
neuropeptides and how we have come to understand their wide range of
neuroregulatory roles. This is highly technical book that reviews in detail
the research that has led to the discovery and understanding of the orexin
neuropeptides and their role in a wide range of neuromodulatory systems.
provide some insights into how manipulation of this system may result in
therapeutic interventions for a number of neurological and psychiatric
conditions. (Michael Easton, Doody s Book Reviews, February, 2016)
