Diffusion-weighted MRS of acetate in the rat brain

Rolf Gruetter, Bernard Lanz, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara, Nicolas Kunz, Masoumeh Dehghani Moghadam

Acetate has been proposed as an astrocyte-specific energy substrate for metabolic studies in the brain. The determination of the relative contribution of the intracellular and extracellular compartments to the acetate signal using diffusion-weighted magnet ...

Proton diffusion spectroscopy and modeling of brain metabolism at 14.1T

Masoumeh Dehghani Moghadam

As a field at the CIBM, Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)spectroscopy can be applied non-invasively to explore the metabolic fate of energy fuel substrates, as well as the rate at which they are consumed, using 13C and 1H nuclei. The work of this thesis enc ...

Direct noninvasive estimation of myocardial tricarboxylic acid cycle flux in vivo using hyperpolarized 13C magnetic resonance

Rolf Gruetter, Hongxia Lei, Tian Cheng, Arnaud Comment, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen

BACKGROUND: The heart relies on continuous energy production and imbalances herein impair cardiac function directly. The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is the primary means of energy generation in the healthy myocardium, but direct noninvasive quantificati ...

Localized in vivo hyperpolarization transfer sequences

Rolf Gruetter, Mor-Miri Mishkovsky, Tian Cheng, Arnaud Comment

In vivo localized and fully adiabatic homonuclear and heteronuclear polarization transfer experiments were designed and performed in the rat brain at 9.4 T after infusion of hyperpolarized sodium [1,2-(13) C(2) ] and sodium [1-(13) C] acetate. The method p ...

Mathematical Modeling of Brain Energy Metabolism, Measured with PET and MRS in Rodents

Bernard Lanz

Positron emission tomography (PET) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) are two biomedical measurement techniques developed in the end of the XXth century, which drastically improved the amount of accessible information available in vivo. PET ...

Cadmium adsorption to mixtures of soil components: Testing the component additivity approach

Daniel Scott Alessi

The ability to predict the distribution of metals in geologic systems requires a modeling approach that can describe the competition among adsorbing surfaces for the metal of interest. In this study, we test if a component additivity (CA) surface complexat ...

Stimulation-induced increases of astrocytic oxidative metabolism in rats and humans investigated with 1-11C-acetate

Pierre Magistretti, Luc Pellerin

The purpose of this study was to investigate astrocytic oxidative metabolism using 1-(11)C-acetate. 1-(11)C-acetate kinetics were evaluated in the rat somatosensory cortex using a beta-scintillator during different manipulations (test-retest, infraorbital ...

Influence of temperature and high acetate concentrations on methanogenensis in lake sediment slurries

Christof Holliger, Bernhard Wehrli

Methanogenesis from main methane precursors H2/CO2 and acetate was investigated in a temperature range of 2–70 °C using sediments from Lake Baldegg, Switzerland. Psychrophilic, psychrotrophic, mesophilic, and thermophilic methanogenic microbial communities ...

Electrochemical investigations in low conductivity organic solvents using microelectrodes

Alain Fankhauser

Electrochemical acetoxylation has been widely investigated about 40 years ago. However, there are only a limited number of studies in non-aqueous electrolytes, mainly because of difficulties related with the extremely low electrical conductivity of organic ...

The organoalkali route to vitamin A and b-carotene

The reductive cleavage of Me vinyl-b-ionyl ether or the deprotonation of 3,2',6',6'-tetramethyl-5-(1-cyclohexenyl)-1,3-pentadiene gives rise to an organometallic C15 species that combines selectively with a variety of electrophiles at the terminal chain po ...
