Sodium Iodate Produces a Strain-Dependent Retinal Oxidative Stress Response Measured In Vivo Using QUEST MRI
Purpose We identify noninvasive biomarkers that measure the severity of oxidative stress within retina layers in sodium iodate (SI)-atrophy vulnerable (C57BL/6 [B6]) and SI-atrophy resistant (129S6/SvEvTac [S6]) mice. Methods At 24 hours after administering systemic SI to B6 and S6 mice we measured: (1) superoxide production in whole retina ex vivo, (2) excessive free radical production in vi...
متن کاملA novel MRI contrast agent synthesized by ion exchange method
Objective: In this study, the zeolite-coated iron oxide nanoparticles were evaluated as MRI contrast agent and effect of the nanocomposite synthesis method on MRI contrast was tested. Materials and Methods: Ion exchange method was used for synthesis of iron oxide-zeolite and the as prepared nanocomposite was characterized by XRD, FESEM and TEM. The nanocomposite toxicity in the cell culture, a...
متن کاملHydrothermal Synthesis of an Ethiodol Based Ferrofluid as a Potential MRI Contrast Agent
In the present work, stable ferrofluids containing oleic acid capped magnetite nanoparticles were synthesized via low temperature hydrothermal method. The physical and chemical properties of the synthesized particles were studied using TEM, XRD, AFM, VSM and PCS techniques. Mean particles size of the samples was between 4.5 and 10 nanometers, depending on experimental conditions. Effect ...
متن کاملIn vivo trans-pyloric mass movement dynamics measured by means of phase-contrast MRI
Introduction: Detailed understanding of the process of digestion and absorption of nutrients is crucial for explaining how abnormal function of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract causes abdominal symptoms. Irregular nutrient absorption can significantly impair the efficiency of medication in the treatment of diseases, e.g. in diabetes and Parkinson’s disease (LIT). Gastric function has been studie...
متن کاملAn intelligent MRI contrast agent for tumor sensing.
An intelligent MRI contrast agent has been designed by taking advantage of a microenvironmental responsive polyion complex (PIC). The intelligent signal switching was achieved by controlling Gd ion-water interactions in the microenvironmental responsive PIC. MRI signal of the agent appeared only in tumor region, selectively, and did not appear in normal tissues, when the agent was administrated...
