Handbook of neurochemistry and molecular neurobiology : Neural Protein Metabolism and Function
This volume discusses aspects of neural protein metabolism. Although this subject is clearly very important and has numerous functional aspects, it did not always get the attention it clearly deserves. Perhaps there are many explanations for researchers hesitating in the past to focus on protein metabolism.

Handbook of neurochemistry and molecular neurobiology : Development and Aging Changes in the Nervous System
In the animal nervous system, a very high metabolic turnover, fragile but steep ionic gradients, and morphological and structural constraints - dictated by the necessity for prompt neuronal transmission of electrical impulses and necessary plasticity - result in a highly fragile organ system. Here, we address a small sampling of major constituents of neural function at the cellular and molecular level that play important roles in development and aging, two endogenous processes that embody features of allostasis or the dynamic shifts in set points for specific homeostatic mechanisms associated with development and aging. These chapters stress the dynamic features of neuronal responses to internal (developmental) cues or the more harmful external events (injury and disease) in a modern perspective.

Handbook of neurochemistry and molecular neurobiology : Brain Energetics. Integration of Molecular and Cellular Processes
Focuses on aspects of energy metabolism that are unique to the brain. The goal of each chapter is to provide a fundamental overview of each area, to define the state-of-the-art in that area as it relates to brain, and, where appropriate, describe models that portray poorly understood and apparently contradictory data sets with the goal of helping focus attention to experimental resolution of controversial issues.
