Melanin-Concentrating Hormone: From Metabolism to Sleep Disorders: Molecular Mediators in Health and Disease: How Cells Communicate

Editat de Jackson C. Bittencourt, Carol Elias
en Limba Engleză Paperback – feb 2027
Melanin-Concentrating Hormone: From Metabolism to Sleep Disorders, the latest volume in the Molecular Mediators in Health and Disease series, offers a comprehensive understanding of this multifunctional peptide. The book covers a wide range of topics, including molecular biology of MCH, MCH in organ function, pharmacology, and MCH in disease. Recent developments in MCH imaging and pharmacological modulation are explored, along with the impact of MCH in psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders and its role in the neuroimmunological modulation of vitiligo. Additionally, MCH is considered in the context of reproductive behavior, sleep, cognition, memory, and peripheral function.

The book also explores MCH across various species such as humans, reptiles, non-primate mammals and teleosts. This is an ideal reference for researchers working with MCH across the fields of cell biology, molecular biology, pharmacology, neuroscience, endocrinology, and beyond.

  • Examines genetic and molecular aspects of the melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH)
  • Considers MCH in the context of disease, including addiction, neurodegenerative, psychiatric, and eating disorders
  • Explores MCH across various organ function
  • Covers MCH in non-rodent biology
