Om Cholecystokinin

Cholecystokinin: From Gallbladder to Cognition and Beyond covers the biology, physiology and pathophysiological roles of cholecystokinin (CCK) peptides. It begins with a historical overview before providing in-depth chapters into the biology of CCK, from biogenesis to cell expression, including intestinal and extraintestinal endocrine cells, and the central and peripheral nervous system, and receptor function. CCK phylogenesis is explored across various species, including fish, birds, insects and amphibians. The physiology of CCK covers intestinal CCK secretion, the gallbladder and pancreas, and the role of CCK in the gut-brain axis, gastrointestinal motor function, appetite regulation, and cardiovascular function. Methods used for CCK research are also discussed. A number of chapters then cover the roles of CCK in various diseases, including metabolic diseases, tumors, psychiatric illness, the immune system and nociception, as well as potential therapeutic approaches targeting CCK receptors.Cholecystokinin: From Gallbladder to Cognition and Beyond is a volume in the Molecular Mediators in Health and Disease book series, and acts as a fundamental reference on all biological and clinical aspects of CCK. This book is ideal for researchers interested in learning more about the role of CCK and its impact across health and disease.
