Ex situ evaluation of the composition of protein corona of intravenously injected superparamagnetic nanoparticles in rats

Heinrich Hofmann, Marie-Gabrielle Chantal Brigitte Ollivier Beuzelin, Lionel André Maurizi, Morteza Mahmoudi, Usawadee Sakulkhu

It is now well recognized that the surfaces of nanoparticles (NPs) are coated with biomolecules (e. g., proteins) in a biological medium. Although extensive reports have been published on the protein corona at the surface of NPs in vitro, there are very fe ...

3D Printing of Rat Salivary Glands: The Submandibular-Sublingual Complex

Alessandro Daducci

The morphology and the functionality of the murid glandular complex, composed of the submandibular and sublingual salivary glands (SSC), were the object of several studies conducted mainly using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Using a 4.7 T scanner and a ...

Neuroprosthetic rehabilitation and translational mechanism after severe spinal cord injury

Lucia Florinda Friedli Wittler

Traumatic SCIs have long-term health, economic and social consequences, stressing the urgency to develop interventions to improve recovery after such injuries. Today, the only proven effective interventions to enhance recovery after SCI are activity-based ...

Involvement of autophagy in hypoxic-excitotoxic neuronal death

Nikita Rudinskiy

Neuronal autophagy is increased in numerous excitotoxic conditions including neonatal cerebral hypoxia-ischemia (HI). However, the role of this HI-induced autophagy remains unclear. To clarify this role we established an in vitro model of excitotoxicity co ...

Multi-modal assessment of long-term erythropoietin treatment after neonatal hypoxic-ischemic injury in rat brain

Rolf Gruetter, Yohan Van de Looij

Erythropoietin (EPO) has been recognized as a neuroprotective agent. In animal models of neonatal brain injury, exogenous EPO has been shown to reduce lesion size, improve structure and function. Experimental studies have focused on short course treatment ...

A Shape-Template Based Two-Stage Corpus Callosum Segmentation Technique for Sagittal Plane T1-Weighted Brain Magnetic Resonance Images

Michaël Unser, Chandra Sekhar Seelamantula

We propose a semi-automatic technique to segment corpus callosum (CC) using a two-stage snake formulation: A restricted affine transform (RAT) constrained snake followed by an unconstrained snake in an iterative fashion. A statistical model is developed to ...

High-performance and reliable site-directed in vivo genetic manipulation of mouse and rat brain by in utero electroporation with a triple-electrode probe

Diego Ghezzi

One of the challenges for modern neuroscience is to understand the role of specific genes in the determination of cellular fate, and in the formation and physiology of neuronal-circuits. Techniques for genetic manipulation in vivo such as in utero electrop ...

Long-term programming of enhanced aggression by peripuberty stress in female rats

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Maria Isabel Cordero Campana

Human literature has linked adverse early life experiences with an increased risk to develop violent behaviors in both boys and girls. We have previously shown that male rats submitted to stress during the peripuberty period display as adults abnormal aggr ...

Interaction of inflammation and hyperoxia in a rat model of neonatal white matter damage

Yohan Van de Looij

Intrauterine infection and inflammation are major reasons for preterm birth. The switch from placenta-mediated to lung-mediated oxygen supply during birth is associated with a sudden rise of tissue oxygen tension that amounts to relative hyperoxia in prete ...

Evidence for biological roots in the transgenerational transmission of intimate partner violence

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Maria Isabel Cordero Campana, Guillaume Poirier, Cristina Marquez Vega, Vandana Veenit, Xavier Fontana, Basira Salehi

Intimate partner violence is a ubiquitous and devastating phenomenon for which effective interventions and a clear etiological understanding are still lacking. A major risk factor for violence perpetration is childhood exposure to violence, prompting the p ...
