AAV9-mediated SMN gene therapy rescues cardiac desmin but not lamin A/C and elastin dysregulation in Smn(2B/-) spinal muscular atrophy mice

Structural, functional and molecular cardiac defects have been reported in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) patients and mouse models. Previous quantitative proteomics analyses demonstrated widespread molecular defects in the severe Taiwanese SMA mouse model. ...

Does powder averaging remove dispersion bias in diffusion MRI diameter estimates within real 3D axonal architectures?

Marco Pizzolato, Tim Bjørn Dyrby

Noninvasive estimation of axon diameter with diffusion MRI holds the potential to investigate the dynamic properties of the brain network and pathology of neurodegenerative diseases. Recent studies use powder averaging to account for complex white matter a ...

Bundle-Specific Axon Diameter Index as a New Contrast to Differentiate White Matter Tracts

Jean-Philippe Thiran, David Paul Roger Romascano, Gabriel Girard, Alessandro Daducci, Cristina Granziera, Muhamed Barakovic, Maxime Descoteaux, Giorgio Innocenti

In the central nervous system of primates, several pathways are characterized by different spectra of axon diameters. In vivo methods, based on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging, can provide axon diameter index estimates non-invasively. However ...

Buckling instabilities and spatio-temporal dynamics of active elastic filaments

Tobias Schneider

Biological filaments driven by molecular motors tend to experience tangential propulsive forces also known as active follower forces. When such a filament encounters an obstacle, it deforms, which reorients its follower forces and alters its entire motion. ...

Architecture of the centriole cartwheel‐containing region revealed by cryo‐electron tomography

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Paul Guichard, Virginie Hamel

Centrioles are evolutionarily conserved barrels of microtubule triplets that form the core of the centrosome and the base of the cilium. While the crucial role of the proximal region in centriole biogenesis has been well documented, its native architecture ...

Axon morphology is modulated by the local environment and impacts the noninvasive investigation of its structure-function relationship

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Jonathan Rafael Patino Lopez, Tim Bjørn Dyrby

Axonal conduction velocity, which ensures efficient function of the brain network, is related to axon diameter. Noninvasive, in vivo axon diameter estimates can be made with diffusion magnetic resonance imaging, but the technique requires three-dimensional ...

DWI Simulation-Assisted Machine Learning Models for Microstructure Estimation

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez, Gabriel Girard, Jonathan Rafael Patino Lopez, Thomas Yu, Muhamed Barakovic, Marco Pizzolato

Diffusion MRI (DW-MRI) allows for the detailed exploration of the brain white matter microstructure, with applications in both research and the clinic. However, state-of-the-art methods for microstructure estimation suffer from known limitations, such as t ...

Diversity of Cortico-descending Projections: Histological and Diffusion MRI Characterization in the Monkey

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Graham Knott, Maxime Descoteaux, Giorgio Innocenti, Tim Bjørn Dyrby

The axonal composition of cortical projections originating in premotor, supplementary motor (SMA), primary motor (a4), somatosensory and parietal areas and descending towards the brain stem and spinal cord was characterized in the monkey with histological ...

Altered interplay between endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria in Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2A neuropathy

Bernard Schneider, Mary-Claude Croisier-Coeytaux, Catherine Maclachlan, Roman Chrast, Nathalie Marie Géraldine Bernard, Cylia Cloé Rochat, Omar El Mansour, Manisha Juneja

Mutations in the MFN2 gene encoding Mitofusin 2 lead to the development of Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2A (CMT2A), a dominant axonal form of peripheral neuropathy. Mitofusin 2 is localized at both the outer membrane of mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticul ...

Towards quantitative brain connectomics: microstructure informed tractography via convex optimization

Muhamed Barakovic

Tractography is the only non-invasive technique which is used to reconstruct the white mat- ter structural connectivity of the human brain. It relies on a specific Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) acquisition, called diffusion MRI, which is sensitive to th ...
