Request a sales quoteNeurobiology and Physiology of the Endocannabinoid System offers readers a comprehensive reference on the neurobiology of this system and the use of cannabimimetic compounds to induce neurological changes and confer symptom relief. With sections on both natural and synthetic compounds, the book's broad coverage allows readers to learn about their use with multiple conditions, as well as the working biology of the endocannabinoid system, its receptors and its ligands. This volume provides a platform for research on the effects of this system and its modulation in brain function and neurological dysfunction.
- Summarizes research on the working neurobiology of the endocannabinoid system
- Contains chapter abstracts, key facts, a dictionary and a summary
- Covers both natural cannabinoids and synthetic or exogenous cannabimimetics
- Includes conditions like headache, anxiety, stress and neuroinflammation
- Discusses system modulation in the context of pain, traumatic brain injury and obesity

Vinood B. Patel
Dr. Patel is a Reader at the University of Westminster. After completing his PhD at King’s College London, he continued his research experience by undertaking his post-doctoral studies in the laboratory of Professor Cunningham in the Department of Biochemistry at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine, (Winston-Salem, NC, USA). This extensive project involved investigating mechanisms of hepatic mitochondrial ribosome dysfunction in alcoholic liver disease (ALD) using biophysical and proteomic techniques. These studies have led to new avenues in determining the pathology of ALD. His teaching areas at both post-graduate and undergraduate levels include clinical biochemistry, investigative pathology and laboratory investigation.
