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 ...

Sympathetic activity and early mobilization in patients in intensive and intermediate care with severe brain injuries: a preliminary prospective randomized study

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Background: Patients who experience severe brain injuries are at risk of secondary brain damage, because of delayed vasospasm and edema. Traditionally, many of these patients are kept on prolonged bed rest in order to maintain adequate cerebral blood flow, ...

Quantitative activity-induced manganese-dependent MRI for characterizing cortical layers in the primary somatosensory cortex of the rat

Rolf Gruetter, Mario Gaetano Lepore, Nathalie Just, Matthieu Pierre Auffret, Idrees Samim

The ability of Mn2+ to follow Ca2+ pathways upon stimulation transform them into remarkable surrogate markers of neuronal activity using activity-induced manganese-dependent MRI (AIM–MRI). In the present study, a precise follow-up of physiological paramete ...

Biomaterials. Electronic dura mater for long-term multimodal neural interfaces

Silvestro Micera, Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Quentin Barraud, Léonie Asboth, Tomislav Milekovic, Marco Capogrosso, Pavel Musienko, Nicolas Vachicouras, Ivan Rusev Minev, Nikolaus Wenger, Jérôme Gandar, Arthur Edouard Hirsch, Natalia Pavlova, Simone Ellen Joze Duis

The mechanical mismatch between soft neural tissues and stiff neural implants hinders the long-term performance of implantable neuroprostheses. Here, we designed and fabricated soft neural implants with the shape and elasticity of dura mater, the protectiv ...

The Impact of Spinal Cord Nerve Roots and Denticulate Ligaments on Cerebrospinal Fluid Dynamics in the Cervical Spine

Bryn Andrew Martin

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics in the spinal subarachnoid space (SSS) have been thought to play an important pathophysiological role in syringomyelia, Chiari I malformation (CM), and a role in intrathecal drug delivery. Yet, the impact that fine anatom ...

Ferritin H gene deletion in the choroid plexus and forebrain results in hydrocephalus

Patrick Fraering, Claude André Schweizer

Ferritin H, the major iron storage protein, has essential functions in early embryonic development as well as in adult liver and intestine. To address the question whether ferritin H has similarly essential functions in the brain we used the Cre/loxP syste ...

Comparison of 4D Phase-Contrast MRI Flow Measurements to Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations of Cerebrospinal Fluid Motion in the Cervical Spine

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bryn Andrew Martin

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics in the cervical spinal subarachnoid space (SSS) have been thought to be important to help diagnose and assess craniospinal disorders such as Chiari I malformation (CM). In this study we obtained time-resolved three direct ...

Self-Organization of Spinal Reflexes through Soft Musculoskeletal Interactions

There has been a long-standing debate on the question of how basic reflexive behaviours in mammals come about. Recently, it has been hypothesized that soft musculoskeletal interactions, such as intrinsic passive dynamics, might play a crucial role in the d ...

Cerebrospinal fluid hydrodynamics in type I Chiari malformation

Bryn Andrew Martin

Purpose: The objective of this study was to review past studies that have used engineering analysis to examine cerebrospinal fluid hydrodynamics in cranial and spinal subarachnoid spaces in both healthy humans and those affected by type I Chiari malformati ...
