Lessons on brain edema in HE: from cellular to animal models and clinical studies

Cristina Ramona Cudalbu Moldovan, Katarzyna Pierzchala, Jessie Julie Mosso

Brain edema is considered as a common feature associated with hepatic encephalopathy (HE). However, its central role as cause or consequence of HE and its implication in the development of the neurological alterations linked to HE are still under debate. I ...

Macrophage depletion induces edema through release of matrix-degrading proteases and proteoglycan deposition

Michele De Palma

Colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) blockade abates tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) infiltrates and provides marked clinical benefits in diffuse-type tenosynovial giant cell tumors. However, facial edema is a common adverse event associated with ...

Oxygen availability in a HAPE-positive and a HAPE-negative woman before and during a visit to 3480 meters

Johannes Burtscher

Background: Testing the hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR) at low-altitude helps to detect those who do not hyperventilate appropriately in hypoxia but might not necessarily predict the HVR and the risk to develop acute mountain sickness (AMS) at high alti ...

Evaluating the potential of hyperpolarised [1-13C] L-lactate as a neuroprotectant metabolic biosensor for stroke

Mor-Miri Mishkovsky, Jean-Noël Hyacinthe, Lara Buscemi Estefanell, Thanh Phong Kevin Lê, Mario Gaetano Lepore

Cerebral metabolism, which can be monitored by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), changes rapidly after brain ischaemic injury. Hyperpolarisation techniques boost (13)C MRS sensitivity by several orders of magnitude, thereby enabling in vivo monitoring ...

Brain Edema in Chronic Hepatic Encephalopathy

Cristina Ramona Cudalbu Moldovan

Brain edema is a common feature associated with hepatic encephalopathy (HE). In patients with acute HE, brain edema has been shown to play a crucial role in the associated neurological deterioration. In chronic HE, advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ...

Preparation for Endurance Competitions at Altitude: Physiological, Psychological, Dietary and Coaching Aspects. A Narrative Review

Johannes Burtscher

It was the Summer Olympic Games 1968 held in Mexico City (2,300 m) that required scientists and coaches to cope with the expected decline of performance in endurance athletes and to establish optimal preparation programs for competing at altitude. From tha ...

Hyperpolarized C-13 Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Reveals the Rate-Limiting Role of the Blood-Brain Barrier in the Cerebral Uptake and Metabolism of L-Lactate in Vivo

Arnaud Comment, Bernard Lanz, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, Tian Cheng, Mor-Miri Mishkovsky, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara, Yuhei Takado, Sylvain Eric Lengacher

The dynamics of L-lactate transport across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and its cerebral metabolism are still subject to debate. We studied lactate uptake and intracellular metabolism in the mouse brain using hyperpolarized C-13 magnetic resonance spectro ...

Distribution of superparamagnetic Au/Fe nanoparticles in an isolated guinea pig brain with an intact blood brain barrier

Francesco Stellacci, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva

Diagnosis and treatment of brain disorders, such as epilepsy, neurodegenerative diseases and tumors, would benefit from innovative approaches to deliver therapeutic or diagnostic compounds into the brain parenchyma, with either a homogeneous or a targeted ...

Progress towards in vivo brain (13)C-MRS in mice: Metabolic flux analysis in small tissue volumes

Rolf Gruetter, Bernard Lanz, Marta Lai

The combination of dynamic (13)C MRS data under infusion of (13)C-labeled substrates and compartmental models of cerebral metabolism enabled in vivo measurement of metabolic fluxes with a quantitative and distinct determination of cellular-specific activit ...
