Interrelation between cardiac and brain small-vessel disease: a pilot quantitative PET and MRI study

Bénédicte Marie Maréchal, Ricardo Alberto Corredor Jerez

Background: Small-vessel disease (SVD) plays a crucial role in cardiac and brain ischemia, but little is known about potential interrelation between both. We retrospectively evaluated 370 patients, aiming at assessing the interrelation between cardiac and ...

The Cerebellum and Cognitive Function: Anatomical Evidence from a Transdiagnostic Sample

Farnaz Delavari

Multiple lines of evidence across human functional, lesion, and animal data point to a cerebellar role, in particular of crus I, crus II, and lobule VIIB, in cognitive function. However, a mapping of distinct facets of cognitive function to cerebellar stru ...

Human Cochlear Nucleus on 7 Tesla Diffusion Tensor Imaging: Insights Into Micro-anatomy and Function for Auditory Brainstem Implant Surgery

Nicolas Vachicouras

Objective:The cochlear nucleus (CN) is the target of the auditory brainstem implant (ABI). Most ABI candidates have Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) and distorted brainstem anatomy from bilateral vestibular schwannomas. The CN is difficult to characterize as ...

Metabolic and hemodynamic changes in the activated human brain and cerebellar organisation measured by MRS/MRl at 7 Tesla

Yohan Boillat

Although less often investigated than the positive blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signal, a negative BOLD signal has also been observed under certain conditions, which could have a neuronal origin. To further investigate the negative BOLD signal from ...

Nicotinamide Pathway-Dependent Sirt1 Activation Restores Calcium Homeostasis to Achieve Neuroprotection in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 7

Johan Auwerx, Karim Laurent Gariani

Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) is a NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase capable of countering age-related neurodegeneration, but the basis of Sirt1 neuroprotection remains elusive. Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) is an inherited CAG-polyglutamine repeat disorder. Transcr ...

Whole-body somatotopic maps in the cerebellum revealed with 7T fMRI

Wietske Van der Zwaag, Yohan Boillat

The cerebellum is known to contain a double somatotopic body representation. While the anterior lobe body map has shown a robust somatotopic organization in previous fMRI studies, the representations in the posterior lobe have been more difficult to observ ...

Consensus Paper: Experimental Neurostimulation of the Cerebellum

Traian Popa

The cerebellum is best known for its role in controlling motor behaviors. However, recent work supports the view that it also influences non-motor behaviors. The contribution of the cerebellum towards different brain functions is underscored by its involve ...

Mild Neonatal Brain Hypoxia-Ischemia in Very Immature Rats Causes Long-Term Behavioral and Cerebellar Abnormalities at Adulthood

Hongxia Lei, Yohan Van de Looij

Systemic hypoxia-ischemia (HI) often occurs during preterm birth in human. HI induces injuries to hinder brain cells mainly in the ipsilateral forebrain structures. Such HI injuries may cause lifelong disturbances in the distant regions, such as the contra ...

Pretherapeutic resting-state fMRI profiles are associated with MR signature volumes after stereotactic radiosurgical thalamotomy for essential tremor

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Constantin Tuleasca, Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Adrien Jean Régis Maurice Hilaire

OBJECTIVE Essential tremor (ET) is the most common movement disorder. Drug-resistant ET can benefit from standard stereotactic deep brain stimulation or radiofrequency thalamotomy or, alternatively, minimally invasive techniques, including stereotactic rad ...

Surface-based characteristics of the cerebellar cortex visualized with ultra-high field MRI

Wietske Van der Zwaag, Cristina Granziera, Gunnar Krüger, Guillaume Bonnier, Kieran O'Brien, Yohan Boillat

Although having a relatively homogeneous cytoarchitectonic organization, the cerebellar cortex is a heterogeneous region characterized by different amounts of myelin, iron and protein expression profiles. In this study, we used quantitative T1 and T2* mapp ...

Non-invasive Cerebellar Stimulation: a Promising Approach for Stroke Recovery?

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Maximilian Jonas Wessel

Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) combined with behavioral training is a promising strategy to augment recovery after stroke. Current research efforts have been mainly focusing on primary motor cortex (M1) stimulation. However, the translation from pro ...

Multi-Modal Optical Imaging of the Cerebellum in Animals

Graham Knott

Thanks to their flexibility, optical techniques could be the key to explore anatomy, plasticity, and functionality of the cerebellum. As an example, an in vivo analysis of the dynamic remodeling of cerebellar axons by nonlinear microscopy can provide funda ...

Altered sensory processing and dendritic remodeling in hyperexcitable visual cortical networks

Silvestro Micera

Epilepsy is characterized by impaired circuit function and a propensity for spontaneous seizures, but how plastic rearrangements within the epileptic focus trigger cortical dysfunction and hyperexcitability is only partly understood. Here we have examined ...

Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping in the Human Brain

Diana Khabipova

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers a good tissue contrast and the ability to visualize many disease related morphologies. The work presented in this thesis investigates the study of underlying structure of the brain using quantitative methods with a s ...

Duration of Purkinje cell complex spikes increases with their firing frequency

Michele Giugliano

Climbing fiber (CF) triggered complex spikes (CS) are massive depolarization bursts in the cerebellar Purkinje cell (PC), showing several high frequency spikelet components (+/- 600 Hz). Since its early observations, the CS is known to vary in shape. In th ...

Digit somatotopy in the human cerebellum: A 7T fMRI study

Rolf Gruetter, Olaf Blanke, Wietske Van der Zwaag, José Pedro Rebelo Ferreira Marques, Roberto Martuzzi

The representation of the human body in the human cerebellum is still relatively unknown, compared to the well-studied homunculus in the primary somatosensory cortex. The investigation of the body representation in the cerebellum and its somatotopic organi ...

A Computational Model for Epidural Electrical Stimulation of Spinal Sensorimotor Circuits

Silvestro Micera, Grégoire Courtine, Marco Capogrosso, Stanisa Raspopovic, Nikolaus Wenger, Pavel Musienko, Janine Beauparlant

Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of lumbosacral segments can restore a range of movements after spinal cord injury. However, the mechanisms and neural structures through which EES facilitates movement execution remain unclear. Here, we designed a comp ...
