Description
Dopamine is a small molecule traditionally regarded as a brain-derived neuronal modulator implicated in many neurological and psychiatric disorders. Outside the brain, dopamine fulfills all the criteria of a circulating hormone which affects normal and abnormal functions of multiple organs and regulatory systems and is also involved in many aspects of cancer formation and progression. This book provides a much needed systematic account of dopamine as an endocrine and autocrine/paracrine hormone and fills a major gap in the overall understanding of the production, distribution and actions of this very important molecule.
Reviews
Review “An outstanding contribution from a multidisciplinary team of recognized European scientists providing a timely update on the most important topics related to vascular diseases and vascular-associated pathologies. The ESC Textbook of Vascular Biology will certainly be invaluable to cardiovascularscientists, cardiologists, and – more in general – to any specialist dealing with vascular diseases. It is also an important tool for undergraduate students in medicine and biology who start approaching this fascinating field of science.” — European Heart Journal
