Description
The phenomenon known as Leao's spreading depression is
investigated in this collection of ten original articles.
New ideas about the fundamental mechanisms, which focus on
the involvement of polyunsaturated fatty acids and free
radicals, are presented. The relationship of spreading
depression with clinical entities such as migraine,
epilepsy, ischemic and protein-deficiency conditions of the
nervous tissue are discussed as well. Studies dealing with
the application of non-invasive techniques to monitor the
disease are included.
