Imidazoline Receptors and Their Endogenous Ligands : Current Concepts and Therapeutic Potential - Papers Presented at the Third International Symposium on July 22-24 1998, in Bonn, Germany

This volume discusses topics of general interest in the context of compounds with imidazoline structure and imidazoline recetors, including molecular and cell biology, endogenous and novel exogenous ligands, identification, distribution, and pharmacology of imidazoline receptor types and subtypes, effects of imidazolines on pancreatic B cells, central sympathoinhibition by imidazolines, targets and functional role of imidazolines, and their pathophysiologic and therapeutic relevance.
