The roots and rhizomes of licorice (Glycyrrhiza) species have long been used worldwide as
a herbal medicine and natural sweetener. Licorice root is a traditional medicine used mainly …

Abstract Licorice (or “liquorice”) is one of most widely used in foods, herbal medicine, and
extensively researched medicinal plants of the world. In traditional medicine licorice roots …

Summarizing landmark research, Volume 2 of this essential series furnishes information on
the availability of germplasm resources that breeders can exploit for producing high-yielding …

Over the past several decades a large amount of data have established that glial cells, the
main cell population in the brain, dynamically interact with neurons and thus impact their …

Gap junctions play an important role in brain physiology. They synchronize neuronal activity
and connect glial cells participating in the regulation of brain metabolism and homeostasis …

Background: Gap junctions are clusters of intercellular channels allowing the bidirectional
pass of ions directly into the cytoplasm of adjacent cells. Electrical coupling mediated by gap …

Gap junctions (GJs) are expressed in most cell types of the nervous system, including
neuronal stem cells, neurons, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, cells of the blood brain barrier …

Undoubtedly, one of the most interesting topics in the field of neuroscience is the ability of
the central nervous system to respond to different stimuli (normal or pathological) by …

This book first reviews the case that brain oscillations not only are important for cognition, as
long suspected, but also play a part in the expression of signs and symptoms of …

Gap junctions (GJs) are intercellular junctions that allow the direct transfer of ions and small
molecules between neighboring cells, and GJs between astrocytes play an important role in …
