After ischemic stroke, the ischemic damage to brain tissue evolves over time and with an uneven spatial distribution. Early irreversible changes occur in the ischemic core, whereas, in the penumbra, which receives more collateral blood flow, the damage is ...
A method is described to determine the effect on the ECG of a reduced propagation velocity within an ischemic zone. The method was designed to change the activation sequence throughout the ventricles interactively, i.e. with a response time in the order of ...
The purpose of this study was to develop a two-compartment metabolic model of brain metabolism to assess oxidative metabolism from [1-C-11] acetate radiotracer experiments, using an approach previously applied in C-13 magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), ...
Cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction, are the leading cause of death worldwide for both men and women. Current therapies are limited by the restricted intrinsic regeneration capacity of the heart and by the lack of organs for transplant ...
Oxygen metabolism is uniquely compartmentalized between neurons and glia, the latter comprising about 25% of neuronal energy metabolism. The consumption of acetate and fixation of CO2 in glutamine occur in astrocytes by oxygen-dependent reactions, which po ...
Background and Purpose—Despite the improving imaging techniques, it remains challenging to predict the outcome early after transient cerebral ischemia. The aim of this study was thus to identify early metabolic biomarkers for outcome prediction. Methods—We ...
Astrocytes have various important roles in brain physiology. To further elucidate the details of astrocytic functions under normal and pathological states, astrocyte-specific measurements are mandatory. For studying brain energy metabolism, the use of the ...
Recent years have seen a surge in mathematical modeling of the various aspects of neuron-astrocyte interactions, and the field of brain energy metabolism is no exception in that regard. Despite the advent of biophysical models in the field, the long-lastin ...
Proton spectroscopy allows the simultaneous quantification of a high number of metabolite concentrations termed the neurochemical profile. The spin echo full intensity acquired localization (SPECIAL) scheme with an echo time of 2.7 ms was used at 9.4T for ...
Brain glutamine synthetase (GS) is an integral part of the glutamate-glutamine cycle and occurs in the glial compartment. In vivo Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) allows noninvasive measurements of the concentrations and synthesis rates of metabolites ...
