- Full title :In vitro neurotoxicology : principles and challenges / edited by Evelyn Tiffany-Castiglioni.
Summary
Provides new concepts and directions for in vitro assessment of neurotoxicity; functional assays for evaluation of neruotoxicity; interactions of neurons and glia in neurotoxicity; review of endogenous neurotoxic proteins; complementary in vivo/in vitro strategies in neurotoxicology; validation of in vitro models in neurotoxicology; interdisciplinary approach utilizing cell biology, neurophysiology, and risk assessment; annotated bibliography of important review articles, books, and methods manuals; and explorations of emerging frontiers in genomic toxicology.
