Engineering spinal cord repair

Grégoire Courtine, Jordan Squair, Matthieu Pierre Gautier, Mark Andrew Anderson, Michael V. Sofroniew

Neurological damage caused by spinal cord injury in humans has been observed for over three thousand years and impacts the lives of several hundred thousand people worldwide. Despite this prevalence and its associated consequences, there is no treatment to ...

Methylglyoxal, the dark side of glycolysis

Pierre Magistretti, Igor Allaman

Glucose is the main energy substrate for the brain. There is now extensive evidence indicating that the metabolic profile of neural cells with regard to glucose utilization and glycolysis rate is not homogenous, with a marked propensity for glycolytic gluc ...

SOD1 silencing in motoneurons or glia rescues neuromuscular function in ALS mice

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Cylia Cloé Rochat, Christopher Towne, Elisabeth Anne Dirren, Julianne Bobela

Objective: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is an incurable disorder mainly characterized by motoneuron degeneration. Mutations in the superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene account for 20% of familial forms of the disease. Mutant SOD1 exerts multiple pathogenic ...

Accelerated Microstructure Imaging via Convex Optimization (AMICO) in crossing fibers

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Alessandro Daducci, Yves Wiaux, Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez, Anna Auria Rasclosa

Mapping the local microstructure properties of the tissue in the brain is crucial to understand any pathological condition from a biological perspective. In recent years, microstructure-imaging techniques aimed at extracting such precious information by us ...

Regulation of Neurotrophic Factors and Energy Metabolism by Antidepressants in Astrocytes

Pierre Magistretti, Igor Allaman

There is growing evidence that astrocytes are involved in the neuropathology of major depression. In particular, decreases in glial cell density observed in the cerebral cortex of individuals with major depressive disorder are accompanied by a reduction of ...

Metabolic response of the cerebral cortex following gentle sleep deprivation and modafinil administration

Pierre Magistretti, Christophe Kopp

Objectives: The main energy reserve of the brain is glycogen, which is almost exclusively localized in astrocytes. We previously reported that cerebral expression of certain genes related to glycogen metabolism changed following instrumental sleep deprivat ...

Expression of the monocarboxylate transporter MCT1 in the adult human brain cortex

Pierre Magistretti, Stephanie Clarke

Distribution of the monocarboxylate transporter MCT1 has been investigated in the cortex of normal adult human brain. Similarly to the glucose transporter GLUT1 55 kDa isoform, MCT1 was found to be strongly expressed on blood vessels in all cortical layers ...
