Neuroprogression in Psychiatric Disorders (Modern Trends in Pharmacopsychiatry, Vol. 31) (PDF Book)
Co-edited by A. Halaris and B.E. Leonard, this book delves into the latest advances in neuroprogression research by international experts. The book sheds light on the relevance of these findings to psychiatric and neurological disorders and describes potential etiopathological mechanisms of neuroprogression in detail. The role of the immune system in stress and stress-related disorders, brain-immune interactions, and the epigenetic consequences of adverse experiences in early childhood is emphasized. The book also covers how recent research has shown that pharmacologic interventions have the potential to arrest the process of neuroprogression. Furthermore, advances in testing and imaging are expected to aid earlier diagnosis and prompt treatment. Psychiatrists, neuroscientists, neurologists, immunologists, pharmacologists, and molecular biologists, in particular, will find the informative chapters directly relevant to their field.
