Ricca's factors as mobile proteinaceous effectors of electrical signaling

Leaf-feeding insects trigger high-amplitude, defense-inducing electrical signals called slow wave potentials (SWPs). These signals are thought to be triggered by the long-distance transport of low molecular mass elicitors termed Ricca's factors. We sought ...

Design and performance of a small bath cryostat with NMR capability for transport of hyperpolarized samples

Andrea Capozzi

As of today, dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (dDNP) is the only clinically available hyperpolarization technique for C-13-MRI. Despite the clear path towards personalized medicine that dDNP is paving as an alternative and/or complement to Positron ...

Cell Type-Specific Membrane Potential Changes in Dorsolateral Striatum Accompanying Reward-Based Sensorimotor Learning

Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet, Tanya C Sippy

The striatum integrates sensorimotor and motivational signals, likely playing a key role in reward-based learning of goal-directed behavior. However, cell type-specific mechanisms underlying reinforcement learning remain to be precisely determined. Here, w ...

Scaling analyses for hyperpolarization transfer across a spin-diffusion barrier and into bulk solid media

David Lyndon Emsley, Arthur César Pinon, Bradley Floyd Chmelka

By analogy to heat and mass transfer film theory, a general approach is introduced for determining hyperpolarization transfer rates between dilute electron spins and a surrounding nuclear ensemble. These analyses provide new quantitative relationships for ...

Deep learning-based reduced order models in cardiac electrophysiology

Alfio Quarteroni, Andrea Manzoni, Luca Dede'

Predicting the electrical behavior of the heart, from the cellular scale to the tissue level, relies on the numerical approximation of coupled nonlinear dynamical systems. These systems describe the cardiac action potential, that is the polarization/depola ...

A stick-slip/inchworm hybrid rotary piezo motor based on a symmetric triangular driving mechanism

Dongdong Zheng, Yuxin Peng

A stick-slip/inchworm hybrid rotary piezomotor based on a symmetric triangular driving mechanism, which can simultaneously achieve the benefits of both stick-slip and inchworm motors, was reported in this letter. It is based on the principle of stick-slip ...

Nonlinear microscopy for temporally and spatially resolved label-free imaging of living cells

Marie Eve Pascale Didier

The human brain consists of approximately a hundred billion of neurons that communicate through a unique series of biochemical and electrical processes. When neuronal networks are solicited, electrochemical processes happen involving millions of cells with ...

Transportable hyperpolarized metabolites

David Lyndon Emsley, Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Aaron James Rossini, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud, Xiao Ji, David Benjamin Roger Antoine Gajan

Nuclear spin hyperpolarization of C-13-labelled metabolites by dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization can enhance the NMR signals of metabolites by several orders of magnitude, which has enabled in vivo metabolic imaging by MRI. However, because of the s ...

Intercellular ultrafast Ca2+ wave in vascular smooth muscle cells: numerical and experimental study

Jean-Jacques Meister, Niccolo Piacentini, Franck Claude Raynaud, Jairo Camilo Quijano Perez

Vascular smooth muscle cells exhibit intercellular Ca2+ waves in response to local mechanical or KCl stimulation. Recently, a new type of intercellular Ca2+ wave was observed in vitro in a linear arrangement of smooth muscle cells. The intercellular wave w ...

Filterable Agents for Hyperpolarization of Water, Metabolites, and Proteins

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Pascal Miéville, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud, Florian Patrick Marie Daniel De la Barre De Nanteuil, Estel Canet Martinez, Xiao Ji, Robert Konrat

Hyperpolarization is generated by dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (d-DNP) using a polymer-based polarizing agent dubbed FLAP (filterable labeled agents for polarization). It consists of a thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), also known a ...
