Functional Aspects of Energy Metabolism in Neural Tissue ISN Satellite Symposium, Carcassonne, August/September 1993: Selected Papers. Special Topic Issue: Developmental Neuroscience 1993, Vol. 15, No. 3-5

Authored by internationally recognized scientists, this special issue of "Developmental Neuroscience" helps to clarify, evaluate and order our current knowledge of the relationships between energy metabolism and neural function. It also identifies the major issues and priorities in this area of research and presents new approaches for investigating the involvement of energy metabolism in various CNS-related disorders.;Included among the many challenging topics discussed in this issue is an extensive presentation of the functional aspects of creatine kinase in neural tissue. Further, it features contributions on the new concept of metabolic trafficking.
