Background: Lactate protects mice against the ischaemic damage resulting from transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) when administered intracerebroventricularly at reperfusion, yielding smaller lesion sizes and a better neurological outcome 48 h ...
Purpose: To implement and characterize a fluorine-19 (F-19) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique and to test the hypothesis that the F-19 MRI signal in steady state after intravenous injection of a perfluoro-15-crown-5 ether (PCE) emulsion may be exp ...
Cerebral energy metabolism is a highly compartmentalized and complex process in which transcellular trafficking of metabolites plays a pivotal role. Over the past decade, a role for lactate in fueling the energetic requirements of neurons has emerged. Furt ...
Poor pharmacokinetic profiles are often the underlying reason for the failure of novel protein drugs to reach clinical translation. Current passive half-life improvement methods focus on increasing the apparent hydrodynamic radius of the drug. We sought to ...
