Methods for Enhancing the High Field in vivo Sensitivity of Long-T1 Nuclear Spins via Dynamic Nuclear Polarization
Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) became a very powerful technique for enhancing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals of insensitive nuclear spins for analytical chemistry and biomedical research. In this thesis we describe methods and hardware developments to maximize the NMR signals of substrates of biological interest containing insensitive nuclear spins with long longitudin...
متن کامل[Methyl-14C]-choline incorporation into nude mice bearing tumor xenografts-correlation with [methyl-3H]-thymidine: A pilot study
Background: Many in vitro studies suggested that choline incorporation into many types of tumors is related to cell proliferation. Whether in vivo choline incorporation is related also to cell proliferation or not was my question. Therefore, the aim of this pilot study was to investigate the relationship of in vivo [methyl- 14C]-choline incorporation and in vivo [methyl-3H]- thymidine incorpora...

متن کاملA New Potential Contrast Agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Iron Oxide-4A Nanocomposite
Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents have an important role to differentiate healthy and diseased tissues. Access and design new contrast agents for the optimal use of MRI are necessary. This study aims to evaluate iron oxide–4A nanocomposite ability to act as a magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent.Materials and Methods: Iron oxide–4A nanocomposite (F4A) was syn...
متن کاملIn vitro visualization of betaine aldehyde synthesis and oxidation using hyperpolarized magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
Real-time monitoring of betaine aldehyde metabolism at high temporal resolution was accomplished using a hyperpolarized choline analog and (13)C-NMR. This represents the first observation of an aldehyde intermediate on hyperpolarized MR and opens the way for kinetic studies of oxidase/dehydrogenase enzymes in vitro and in vivo.
