Diffusion kurtosis as an in vivo imaging marker for reactive astrogliosis in traumatic brain injury
Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging (DKI) provides quantifiable information on the non-Gaussian behavior of water diffusion in biological tissue. Changes in water diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) parameters and DKI parameters in several white and gray matter regions were investigated in a mild controlled cortical impact (CCI) injury rat model at both the acute (2 h) and the sub-acute (7 days) stages follo...
متن کاملEvaluation of Endoglin as an Angiogenesis Marker in Glioblastoma
Background and Objectives: Angiogenesis is essential for growth and metastasis of solid malignancies. Tumor vessel count and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a potent angiogenic factor, have been associated with prognosis. This study was designed to assess vessels density by using CD31 and CD105 (Endoglin) and their correlation with expression of VEGF and prolif...
متن کاملPinocytosis as a select marker of ramified microglia in vivo and in vitro.
Based on previous observations in tissue culture, we investigated pinocytotic activity as a potential cell marker for brain microglia. This functional activity was assessed in three different preparations derived from rat: primary cultures of mixed cerebral cortical cells, tissue slabs of whole cerebrum, and cultures of isolated or enriched microglial cells. Each preparation was incubated with ...
متن کاملIncluding diffusion time dependence in the extra-axonal space improves in vivo estimates of axonal diameter and density in human white matter
Axonal density and diameter are two fundamental properties of brain white matter. Recently, advanced diffusion MRI techniques have made these two parameters accessible in vivo. However, the techniques available to estimate such parameters are still under development. For example, current methods to map axonal diameters capture relative trends over different structures, but consistently over-est...
متن کاملQuantitative imaging of microtubule alteration as an early marker of axonal degeneration after ischemia in neurons.
Neuronal death can be preceded by progressive dysfunction of axons. Several pathological conditions such as ischemia can disrupt the neuronal cytoskeleton. Microtubules are basic structural components of the neuronal cytoskeleton that regulate axonal transport and neuronal function. Up-to-date, high-resolution observation of microtubules in living neuronal cells is usually accomplished using fl...
