Partial volume correction for quantifying venous oxygen saturation levels using contrast-enhanced MRI

NeuroImage
Quantifying brain oxygenation is crucial for diagnosing and managing neurological conditions like stroke. Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), an MRI technique, can measure venous oxygen saturation (Yv) but is hampered by partial volume effects ...

Engineered Microvascular Model of the Blood–Brain–Tumor Barrier Reveals Endothelial Remodeling in Diffuse Midline Glioma

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We developed a patient‐derived, functional microfluidic model of the diffuse midline glioma (DMG) blood–brain–tumor barrier (BBTB) comprised of endothelial cells, astrocytes, pericytes, and tumor cells. The system forms perfusable microvasculature, reveals the BBTB retains vascular integrity, identifies DMG‐specific transcriptomic changes distinct from

Approche méthodologique de quantification de certaines veines émissaires cérébrales

Bulletins et Mémoires de la Société d’Anthropologie de Paris, 2006
Cerebral blood drainage can be studied on bone remains by measuring the diameters of the canals of the veins which cross the cranium. In this study, we propose a methodology which uses a casting method with a specific material to define the measurements ...

GPR124 Alleviates Blood–Brain Barrier Disruption by Enhancing Microvascular Endothelial Function after Traumatic Brain Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Our study reveals the protective role of GPR124 in maintaining BBB integrity and promoting neurological recovery following TBI. It makes a significant contribution by uncovering a novel molecular interaction between GPR124 and FGFBP1 and linking this to activation of the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway in vascular repair mechanisms.
