Receptors in the Nervous System Volume 6 / edited by Abel Lajtha.

A major advance in the biological sciences in the past decade has been the biochemical identification of cell membrane receptors. The existence of re­ ceptor substances on the surface of cells that recognize and bind to extracellular molecules was proposed at the beginning of the century by the phar...
