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 ...

Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering Studies of Low-Dimensional and Frustrated 3d Transition-Metal Oxides

Yi Tseng

3d transition-metal oxide materials with strong electron correlations and low dimensionality give rise to emerging exotic phases. Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) has developed as a powerful spectroscopic tool for probing the collective excitatio ...

Broadband visible two-dimensional spectroscopy of molecular dyes

Majed Chergui, Andre Al Haddad, Rebecca Ann Ingle, Lars-Hendrik Mewes

Two-dimensional Fourier transform spectroscopy is a promising technique to study ultrafast molecular dynamics. Similar to transient absorption spectroscopy, a more complete picture of the dynamics requires broadband laser pulses to observe transient change ...

3-Dimensional magnetic resonance imaging of the freely moving human eye

Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, Silvio Ionta, João Pedro Forjaco Jorge, Jérôme Yerly, Lorenzo Di Sopra

Eye motion is a major confound for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neuroscience or ophthalmology. Currently, solutions toward eye stabilisation include participants fixating or administration of paralytics/anaesthetics. We developed a novel MRI protoco ...

alpha-Diimine homologues of cisplatin: synthesis, speciation in DMSO/water and cytotoxicity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

The Pt(ii) -diimine complexes [PtCl2{N-2-(HCNR)(2)}] (R = C6H11, 1; 4-C6H10OH, 2; 4-C6H4CH3, 3; 4-C6H4OH, 4) and [PtCl2{N-2-(CH3CNOH)(2)}] (5) were prepared in 60-81% yields from the 1:1 molar reactions of cis-[PtCl2(DMSO)(2)] with the appropriate -diimine ...

Exciting Wide NMR Spectra of Static Solid Samples with Weak Radiofrequency Fields

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Diego Carnevale, Srinivas Chinthalapalli

Trains of short pulses in the manner of `delays alternating with nutations for tailored excitation' (DANTE) have been applied to the Pake patterns of protons of water molecules trapped in a static powdered sample of barium chlorate monohydrate. The spin dy ...

Brain energy metabolism measured by 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy in vivo upon infusion of [3-13C]lactate

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Rolf Gruetter

The brain uses lactate produced by glycolysis as an energy source. How lactate originated from the blood stream is used to fuel brain metabolism is not clear. The current study measures brain metabolic fluxes and estimates the amount of pyruvate that becom ...

Protective effects of maternal nutritional supplementation with lactoferrin on growth and brain metabolism

Rolf Gruetter, Yohan Van de Looij

Background:Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is a major risk factor for both perinatal and long-term morbidity. Bovine lactoferrin (bLf) is a major milk glycoprotein considered as a pleiotropic functional nutrient. The impact of maternal supplementati ...

High Temporal Resolution Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging at 7 Tesla

Mayur Narsude

Speed has always been a critical consideration in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), promising dramatic gains in imaging speed, a reduction in motion and susceptibility artifacts, and ultimately increased throughput for clinical studies. This thesis present ...

Proton NMR of15N-choline metabolites enhanced by dynamic nuclear polarization

Rolf Gruetter, Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Arnaud Comment, Sami Jannin, Riddhiman Sarkar, Paul Romeo Vasos

(Figure Presented) Chemical shifts of protons can report on metabolic transformations such as the conversion of choline to phosphocholine. To follow such processes in vivo, magnetization can be enhanced by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP). We have hyperp ...

Long-lived States in Multiple-Spin Systems

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Riddhiman Sarkar, Paul Romeo Vasos, Puneet Ahuja

Long-lived spin states are excited in molecules featuring more than two isolated coupled spins, including amino acids. The figure shows the exponential recovery with the longest time-constant in aspartic acid, T1max=5.842±0.004 s, and of the decay of the l ...

Brain Surface Segmentation of Magnetic Resonance Images of the Fetus

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Marie Schaer, Nawal Houhou, Dominique Zosso

In this work we present a method for the image analysis of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of fetuses. Our goal is to segment the brain surface from multiple volumes (axial, coronal and sagittal acquisitions) of a fetus. To this end we propose a two-step ...

Novel chelators for MRI applications : stability and relaxation properties of their metal complexes

In the last two decades, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has evolved into one of the most powerful techniques in diagnostic clinical medicine and biomedical research. MRI is primarily used to produce anatomical images, but may also give information on the ...

Aspects expérimentaux en spectroscopie et imagerie RMN : partie 1, Détection de spins couplés - partie 2, Échauffement dû à une antenne endovasculaire

Jacqueline Pictet

The main aim of this work is to detect metabolites in the brain by means of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. We were mostly interested by glutathione (GSH) and more particularly by its cysteine part which forms a strongly coupled ABX spins system. ...
