The book is organized into 11 parts covering NCX structural
aspects, genetic and epigenetic regulation, regulatory
mechanisms, subcellular localization in mitochondria, involvement
in neurodegenerative diseases and in immune regulation, and the
role of the cardiovascular and endocrine systems, as well as
diabetes in physiology and pathophysiology. Selected chapters of
the book are also devoted to the interaction of NCKX and other
ion channels and transporters with NCX, like ASICs, TRPM, and
NHE.
