The aim of this volume is to give up-to-date information on animal models generated by transgenic or gene targeting techniques. Naturally, the focus is on the mouse system. Each chapter has been written by leading experts in the field and gives an overview on existing animal models. This is facilitated by tables, which list the most important genetically engineered animal models and their phenotypes. This book aims at  illustrating the impact of transgenic animal models in the field of Experimental Pharmacology and Toxicology, which includes their role in the understanding of basic cellular mechanisms, the evaluation of potential drug targets or the testing for drug effects.

Wie und wieso wirken vasoaktive Substanzen und wie werden sie wirksam eingesetzt? Welche Substanzen eignen sich zur perioperativen Myokardprojektion?Kenntnisse zur Pharmakologie und deren Anwendung sind das notwendige Rüstzeug für den Anästhesisten und Intensivmediziner. Erfahrene Anästhesisten und Pharmakologen stellen hier die pharmakologischen Grundlagen und deren klinischen Anwendung in der Anästhesie und Intensivmedizin verwendeten Medikamenten dar. Systematisch werden chemische Struktur, Wirkungsweise, Nebenwirkungen, Indikationen verbunden mit klinischen Konzepten und Anwendungshinweisen erläutert. Plus:- Kapitel zu Antibiotika und deren Anwendung- Begleitmedikation und deren Wechselwirkungen mit AnästhetikaEine optimale Ergänzung zu allen Lehrbüchern der Anästhesie und Intensivmedizin, in denen die Pharmakologie zu kurz kommt.
