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 کاملDeprenyl increases synaptophysin and choline acetyltransferase in rat after sciatic nerve axotomy
Neuroprotective effect of deprenyl on motoneurons of spinal cord after axotomy of peripheral nerves such as sciatic has been well established. Deprenyl is an inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type-B (MAO-B). The main function of this agent is the release of neurotransmitters from pre-synaptic terminals. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that is synthesized by choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and...
