Ion Channels : Molecules in Action
Editorial Reviews
Review
'This well-written and well-illustrated book summarises the background and the recent advances. It is aimed at an undergraduate audience but could be understood by any non-specialist with an interest in this area.' J. A. Lee, Biologist
' ... nine brilliant chapters ... excellently well presented and will be of a very great help, not only for students, but also for already well established scientists.' Cellular and Molecular Biology
' ... an excellent book: it is clear, focused and honest ... it will hopefully whet the appetite of students and prepare them for more-advanced texts, both in physiology and in biophysical chemistry.' Philippe Ascher, Trends in Neurosciences
Book Description
Ion channels are crucial components of living cells. Situated in the cell membrane, they allow ions to pass from one side of the membrane to the other. This book provides an overview of ion channel study, including up-to-date coverage of the permeability and selectivity of channels, their gating and modulation, their response to drugs and toxins, and the human diseases that result from channel malfunction. Students of molecular biology, biochemistry, physiology, and neurobiology will benefit from this modern, concise text.
