Human skull translucency: post mortem studies.
Measurements of optical translucency of human skulls were carried out. An incandescent light source and a CCD camera were used to measure the distribution of light transmitted through the skull in 10 subjects post-mortem. We noticed that intra-individual differences in optical translucency may be up to 100 times but inter-individual translucency differences across the skull reach 105 times. Bas...
متن کاملAre post-mortem biochemical studies of human brain worthwhile?
et al., 1981), a value similar to that for the proteinase solubilized from myelin membranes. When the metalloproteinase activity from myelin membranes is purified to homogeneity it can be compared more accurately with meprin and endopeptidase 24.1 5. In addition, antibodies against this proteinase should permit immunoelectron microscopy to pinpoint its subcellular localization in the nervous sy...
متن کاملPartitioning the Proteome: Phase Separation for Targeted Analysis of Membrane Proteins in Human Post-Mortem Brain
Neuroproteomics is a powerful platform for targeted and hypothesis driven research, providing comprehensive insights into cellular and sub-cellular disease states, Gene × Environmental effects, and cellular response to medication effects in human, animal, and cell culture models. Analysis of sub-proteomes is becoming increasingly important in clinical proteomics, enriching for otherwise undetec...
متن کاملPre-testing Screening for HIV before Conducting Post-mortem Examinations
Autopsy safety was not much of a consideration until the 1980s when HIV infection appeared. At first, the emphasis was placed on the prevention of infection by establishing "universal precautions". Along with this came procedures and regulations to minimize the possibility of cuts and needle sticks. Other hazards were eventually identified, and appropriate precautions were implemented to varyin...
متن کاملNeuromuscular synapse integrity requires linkage of acetylcholine receptors to postsynaptic intermediate filament networks via rapsyn–plectin 1f complexes
Mutations in the cytolinker protein plectin lead to grossly distorted morphology of neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) in patients suffering from epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS)-muscular dystrophy (MS) with myasthenic syndrome (MyS). Here we investigated whether plectin contributes to the structural integrity of NMJs by linking them to the postsynaptic intermediate filament (IF) network. Live i...
