Neurogastronomy: How the Brain Creates Flavor and Why It Matters

Gordon M. Shephered

editore: Editori Vari

pagine: 167

Leading neuroscientist Gordon M. Shepherd embarks on a paradigm-shifting trip through the "human brain flavor system," laying the foundations for a new scientific field: neurogastronomy. Challenging the belief that the sense of smell diminished during human evolution, Shepherd argues that this sense, which constitutes the main component of flavor, is far more powerful and essential than previously believed.Shepherd begins Neurogastronomy with the mechanics of smell, particularly the way it stimulates the nose from the back of the mouth. As we eat, the brain conceptualizes smells as spatial patterns, and from these and the other senses it constructs the perception of flavor. Shepherd then considers the impact of the flavor system on contemporary social, behavioral, and medical issues. He analyzes flavor's engagement with the brain regions that control emotion, food preferences, and cravings, and he even devotes a section to food's role in drug addiction and, building on Marcel Proust's iconic tale of the madeleine, its ability to evoke deep memories. Shepherd connects his research to trends in nutrition, dieting, and obesity, especially the challenges that many face in eating healthily. He concludes with human perceptions of smell and flavor and their relationship to the neural basis of consciousness. Everyone from casual diners and ardent foodies to wine critics, chefs, scholars, and researchers will delight in Shepherd's fascinating, scientific-gastronomic adventures.

Stress e vita. La scienza dello stress e la scienza della salute alla luce della Psiconeuroendocrinoimmunologia

a cura di F. Bottaccioli

editore: Tecniche Nuove

pagine: 563

Il volume nasce dal proposito di correggere l'immagine negativa spesso associata allo Stress, che di per sé non è negativo, anzi è l'essenza della vita. Per questo raccoglie saggi e contributi che spaziano dallo stress cellulare fino allo stress da lavoro, da terremoto, da malattia, nonché qualificate esperienze di gestione dello stress realizzate con il metodo scientifico e studi sul buon stress, detto anche eustress, e sull'eustasi, buon equilibrio. Gli Autori provengono da tradizioni scientifiche e professionali molte diverse tra loro: medici e ricercatori di varia specializzazione, psicologi di vario orientamento, sociologi, filosofi, studiosi della complessità. Eppure il lettore potrà facilmente rintracciare il filo rosso che unisce i numerosi contributi, che è rappresentato dall'intenzione di rivedere la scienza dello stress, unificando le due grandi tradizioni di ricerca: quella neurobiologica - che parte da Hans Selye negli anni '30 del secolo scorso e giunge fino oggi con gli studi di scienziati come Hugo Besedovsky, George Chrousos, Rainer Straub, Claudio Franceschi (tutti in questo volume) - e quella psicologica, che parte da Richard Lazarus e che è qui rappresentata da numerosi qualificati studiosi italiani e stranieri.

Le emozioni enzimi della mente

a cura di R. Bottacioli, R. CardoneM. Mambelli
e altri

editore: Neos Edizioni

pagine: 228

Il volume, frutto di una molteplicità di voci, ma soprattutto di menti, tratta della psiconeuroendocrinoimmunologia (PNEI). Questo nuovo paradigma scientifico è il risultato del convergere di cambiamenti e avanzamenti di più campi del sapere.

Psiconeuroendocrinoimmunologia. Una chiave di lettura della medicina biologica

Rossana Lencioni

editore: Nuova IPSA

pagine: 524

La constatazione dell'esistenza di una comunicazione tra i tre grandi sistemi, neuropsichico, immunitario ed endocrino e, soprattutto, della sua bidirezionalità per tutti e tre gli apparati, oltre all'evidenza che neurotrasmettitori, neuropeptidi, neurormoni e citochine vengono prodotti indifferentemente dalle cellule di tutti e tre i sistemi, ha profondamente modificato il cammino della ricerca. Si auspica che, attraverso uno studio più globale dei fini meccanismi che modulano le risposte dell'intero organismo, la psiconeuroendocrinoimmunologia possa consentire di superare la storica contrapposizione tra le "due medicine", convenzionale e non convenzionale, ispirate rispettivamente ad una impostazione prevalentemente riduzionista, l'una, sostanzialmente anti-riduzionista l'altra.

Stress Science

Neuroendocrinology

George Fink

editore: Academic Press Inc

pagine: 829

Stress is a universal phenomenon that impacts adversely on most people. This volume provides a readily accessible compendium that explains the phenomenon of stress, the neural, endocrine and molecular mechanisms involved, the clinical effects, and the impact on individuals and society. Clinical attention focuses on disorders of the stress control system (e.g. Cushing's Syndrome: Addison's Disease) and the adverse impact of stress on human physical and mental health. Detailed reviews address disorders such as PTSD, anxiety, major depression, psychoses and related disorders such as combat fatigue and burnout. The work covers interactions between stress and neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, as well as stress-immune-inflammatory interactions in relation to cancer and autoimmune and viral diseases. Emphasis is also placed on the role of stress in obesity, hypertension, diabetes type II and other features of the metabolic syndrome which has now reached epidemic proportions in the USA and other countries. Chapters offer impressive scope with topics addressing animal studies, disaster, diurnal rhythms, drug effects and treatments, cognition and emotion, physical illness, psychopathology, immunology and inflammation, lab studies and tests, and psychological/biochemical/genetic aspects. This book is richly illustrated with over 200 figures, 75 in color. Priced affordably, this compendium of articles appeals to the end user interested in stress research who would not otherwise purchase the larger "Encyclopedia of Stress". Articles carefully selected by one of the world's most preeminent stress researchers and contributors represent the most outstanding scholarship in the field, with each chapter providing fully vetted and reliable expert knowledge.

Principles of Hormone/Behavior Relations

Donald W. Pfaff, Geoffrey Head
e altri

editore: Academic Press Inc

pagine: 360

This text introduces underlying principles of the endocrine regulation of behavior in animals and humans. Every chapter begins by stating a principle, followed by specific examples of hormone actions derived from scientific experiments and clinical observations, and concludes with a few challenging unanswered questions. The reference source "Hormones, Brain & Behavior" identified this field as rapidly expanding within neurobiology and endocrinology. Now, this well-illustrated and referenced text will serve students from undergraduate school to medical school as they learn this new discipline. It offers uniform presentation of material across all chapter, with each chapter addressing a key principle, illustrated by basic experimental and clinical examples. It includes user-friendly features such as boxed figures with extended captions and references, numerous clinical notes, and a comprehensive list of abbreviations. The illustrations highlight both the clinical and basic science information.

Psychoneuroimmunology

Robert Ader

editore: Academic Press Inc

pagine: 1320

Psychoneuroimmunology is the study of interactions among behavioral, neural and endocrine, and immunologic processes of adaptation. These two volumes provide a clearly written, extensively referenced summary of some of the behavioral, neural and endocrine regulators of immune responses and immunologically mediated disease processes and of the behavioral and neuroendocrine effects of immune system activity. Several chapters expand upon topics reviewed in earlier editions of this series; most chapters cover active areas of research that have not previously been reviewed. As illustrated in this fourth edition, interdisciplinary research continues to provide evidence that the brain and immune system represent a single, integrated system of defense. It is fully revised and updated fourth edition of the classic reference. It provides a neuroendocrine and immunologic perspective for the behavioral scientist. It provides a behavioral and neuroscience perspective for the immunologist. It helps the reader translate basic science findings into clinically relevant information. It provides the reader with the background for and foundation of integrative research and integrative medicine. It provides an encyclopedic resource for advanced undergraduates and for pre - and post-doctoral students as well as active researchers.
