Add to basketThis book discusses the regulation of gene transcription by neuronal activity that is evident in a large number of neuronal processes ranging from neural development and refinement of neuronal connections to learning and response to injury. Transcriptional Regulation by Neuronal Activity: To the Nucleus and Back, 2nd edition illustrates how signals are transmitted to the nucleus in response to neuronal activity, which genes are regulated and how this is achieved, and how these changes in gene expression alter neuronal function. The aim of this second edition is to highlight key advances in the field since the first edition. The book is divided into four sections. The first highlights how signals get to the nucleus from the membrane in response to synaptic or neuronal activity. Included are chapters on the pathways that transmit signals from synapses to nuclei. The second section focuses on epigenetic regulatory processes of activity-induced gene transcription, an area that has exploded in the past few years. The third section navigates the role of activity-induced genes in physiological processes such as learning and memory, and human developmental disorders such as those associated with the autism spectrum. The fourth section highlights groundbreaking technological advances in the field, which have allowed activity-regulated transcription to be used as a tool to study learning and memory.
Ramendra N Saha, Ph.D., is an Associate Professor at the University of California (UC) Merced where he is also the co-director of the UC Merced Center for Interdisciplinary Neuroscience. Ramen did his post-doctoral training with Serena Dudek at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, United States National Institutes of Health where he studied molecular mechanisms of activity-induced neuronal immediate early gene transcription. Now, his laboratory at UC Merced continues to study signaling and epigenetic mechanisms of excitation-transcription coupling. Ramen serves on the editorial board of Environmental Epigenetics.

Serena M. Dudek, Ph.D., is a Senior Investigator and the Deputy Chief of the Neurobiology Laboratory at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, United States National Institutes of Health. Her research focuses on the molecular and cellular mechanisms regulating synaptic plasticity in the developing nervous system to better understand how environmental factors shape the adult brain. Dr Dudek is best known for her early work on long-term synaptic depression (LTD) and pruning, regulation of neuronal gene transcription by action potentials, and synaptic plasticity in hippocampal area CA2. She serves on the editorial boards of Hippocampus and the Journal of Neuroscience. In addition, she is the recipient of the 2009 A.E. Bennett Research Award from the Society of Biological Psychiatry.

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us or Books Puddle, 244 Madison Ave, Suite # 405, 10016, New York, New York, U.S.A., +1 7183015977, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of cancellation
The right of cancellation does not apply to:
