Overview of enteric neurobiology -- Myoelectrical activity of the smooth muscle -- Pharmacology of myoelectrical activity -- Physicochemical basis of synaptic transmission -- Neuronal assemblies -- Multiple neurotransmission -- Functional unit -- Dynamics of intestinal propulsion. |
Summary |
The book recognizes the complexity of biological phenomena under investigation and treats the subject matter with a degree of mathematical rigor. Special attention is given to computer simulations for interpolation and extrapolation of electromechanical and chemoelectrical phenomena, nonlinear self-sustained electromechanical wave activity, pharmacological effects including co-localization and co-transmission by multiple neurotransmitters, receptor polymodality, and drug interactions. |
