Localized in vivo 13C NMR spectroscopy of the brain.
Localized (13)C NMR spectroscopy provides a new investigative tool for studying cerebral metabolism. The application of (13)C NMR spectroscopy to living intact humans and animals presents the investigator with a number of unique challenges. This review provides in the first part a tutorial insight into the ingredients required for achieving a successful implementation of localized (13)C NMR spe...
متن کاملSupramolecular interactions probed by 13C-13C solid-state NMR spectroscopy.
We present a robust solid-state NMR approach for the accurate determination of molecular interfaces in insoluble and noncrystalline protein-protein complexes. The method relies on the measurement of intermolecular (13)C-(13)C distances in mixtures of [1-(13)C]glucose- and [2-(13)C]glucose-labeled proteins. We have applied this method to Parkinson's disease-associated α-synuclein fibrils and fou...
متن کامل13C NMR spectroscopy applications to brain energy metabolism
(13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is the method of choice for studying brain metabolism. Indeed, the most convincing data obtained to decipher metabolic exchanges between neurons and astrocytes have been obtained using this technique, thus illustrating its power. It may be difficult for non-specialists, however, to grasp thefull implication of data presented in articles writte...
متن کاملCompartmentalized Cerebral Metabolism of [1,6-13C]Glucose Determined by in vivo 13C NMR Spectroscopy at 14.1 T
Cerebral metabolism is compartmentalized between neurons and glia. Although glial glycolysis is thought to largely sustain the energetic requirements of neurotransmission while oxidative metabolism takes place mainly in neurons, this hypothesis is matter of debate. The compartmentalization of cerebral metabolic fluxes can be determined by (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy upon...
متن کاملOptimization of 13C direct detection NMR methods.
(13)C-detected experiments are still limited by their inherently lower sensitivity, as compared to the equivalent (1)H-detected experiments. Improving the sensitivity of (13)C detection methods remains a significant area of NMR research that may provide better means for studying large macromolecular systems by NMR. In this communication, we show that (13)C-detected experiments are less sensitiv...
