Description

The "Neurobiology of Type 2 Diabetes" delves into the intricate interplay between the nervous system and the development, progression, and management of Type 2 Diabetes. This comprehensive volume explores the often-overlooked neurological aspects of diabetes, offering a unique perspective on the disease. The purpose of this book is to bridge the gap between neuroscience and diabetes research, providing a consolidated resource that elucidates the complex relationship between the brain and metabolic regulation. By synthesizing the latest scientific findings, the book aims to offer researchers, clinicians, and students a deep understanding of how neural pathways influence glucose homeostasis, insulin sensitivity, and the emergence of diabetic complications.

Key features

  • Explores the neurobiology of glucose homeostasis and insulin resistance
  • Examines the neural circuits and neuroendocrine regulation involved in metabolic control
  • Details the clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches, and management of diabetic neuropathy
  • Presents case studies highlighting clinical decision-making and outcomes
  • Reviews the current and emerging therapeutics for type 2 diabetes

Readership
