Intrastriatal injection of quinolinic acid (QA) provides an animal model of Huntington disease. In vivo 1H NMR spectroscopy was used to measure the neurochemical profile non-invasively in seven animals 5 days after unilateral injection of 150 nmol of QA. C ...
The relationships between brain activity and accompanying hemodynamic and metabolic alterations, particularly between the cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen utilization (CMR(O2)) and cerebral blood flow (CBF), are not thoroughly established. CMR(O2) is clos ...
In view of the neurotrophic effect of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), the regulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression by VIP and the related peptide pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) was analysed by North ...
Glutamatergic neurotransmission is associated with release of arachidonic acid (AA) from membrane phospholipids of both neurons and astrocytes. Since free AA has been shown to enhance glutamate-mediated synaptic transmission, it can be postulated that glut ...
Using optimized administration of 13C-labeled glucose, the time course of the specific activity of glucose was measured directly by in vivo 13C-NMR in the human brain at 4 Tesla. Subsequent label incorporation was measured at the C2, C3 and C4 positions of ...
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in low and medium magnetic fields yields well-resolved natural abundance proton and decoupled phosphorus spectra from small (1-10 cc) volumes of brain in vivo in minutes. With this tool, neurochemical research ...
Excitatory synaptic transmission is associated with changes in both extracellular and intracellular pH. Using mouse cortical neurons in primary cultures, we studied the sensitivity of glutamate-evoked release of 3H-arachidonic acid (3H-AA) to changes in ex ...
The excitatory amino acid glutamate was previously shown to stimulate aerobic glycolysis in astrocytes by a mechanism involving its uptake through an Na+-dependent transporter. Evidence had been provided that Na+,K+-ATPase might be involved in this process ...
VIP neurons are a homogeneous population of intracortical bipolar cells. They receive excitatory synapses from afferent circuits to the cortex and exert effects on neurons, astrocytes, and capillaries. Effects on the two latter cell types imply that VIP ne ...
BACKGROUND: Deep hypothermia has been associated with an increased incidence of postoperative neurologic dysfunction after cardiac surgery in children. Recent studies suggest an excitotoxic mechanism involving overstimulation of glutamate receptors. Extrac ...
