ATP acts as main energy source and is pivotal for numerous signaling cascades both inside the
cells (by fuelling various transport systems and donating phosphate groups) and between the
cells (by chemical transmission). Similarly glutamate acts as an important molecule for both
intercellular signaling though glutamatergic transmission and cell energetics by contributing
to ATP production.In this collection of chapters written by the leading experts in the field
of cell metabolism and energetics intracellular signaling and neurotransmission we covered
various aspects of the interfacing between these two fundamental molecules. This book will be
particularly useful for researchers students physicians and psychotherapists working in the
field of neurobiology neurology and psychiatry.
