Social isolation stress and chronic glutathione deficiency have a common effect on the glutamine-to-glutamate ratio and myo-inositol concentration in the mouse frontal cortex

Rolf Gruetter, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Kim Do, Alberto Corcoba

Environmental stress can interact with genetic predisposition to increase the risk of developing psychopathology. In this work, we tested the hypothesis that social isolation stress interacts with impaired glutathione synthesis and have cumulative effects ...

From green to clean: a promising and sustainable approach to remove toxic metals from contaminated soils

Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel

Phytoextraction is an in situ decontamination technique using metal accumulating plants and appropriate soil amendments to transport and concentrate metals from the soil into the aboveground parts of plants, which are harvested with conventional agricultur ...

Stability of enhanced yield and metal uptake by sunflower mutants for improved phytoremediation

Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Erika Nehnevajova, Cécile Bourigault

Plant biomass and metal shoot accumulation are key factors for efficient phytoextraction. In a previous study, chemical mutagenesis has been used to improve the phytoextraction potential of sunflowers. The main goal of the present study was to assess the s ...

Neurochemical changes in Huntington R6/2 mouse striatum detected by in vivo 1H NMR spectroscopy

Rolf Gruetter

The neurochemical profile of the striatum of R6/2 Huntington's disease mice was examined at different stages of pathogenesis using in vivo1H NMR spectroscopy at 9.4 T. Between 8 and 12 weeks, R6/2 mice exhibited distinct changes in a set of 17 quantifiable ...

Perinatal iron deficiency predisposes the developing rat hippocampus to greater injury from mild to moderate hypoxia-ischemia

Rolf Gruetter, Ramachandra Rao

The hippocampus is injured in both hypoxia-ischemia (HI) and perinatal iron deficiency that are co-morbidities in infants of diabetic mothers and intrauterine growth restricted infants. We hypothesized that preexisting perinatal iron deficiency predisposes ...

Non-GMO approach for the improvement of heavy metal accumulation and extraction of high yielding crop species for efficient phytoextraction of contaminated soil

Erika Nehnevajova

Some plants able to take up heavy metals from contaminated soils offer a possibility to clean up sites contaminated with heavy metals. Plants thus act as a solar driven pump, which can extract and concentrate heavy metals from the environment. Since most o ...
