Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Increases Level of Heme Oxygenase-1 and Biliverdin Reductase in the Choroid Plexus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Subarachnoid hemorrhage is a specific, life-threatening form of hemorrhagic stroke linked to high morbidity and mortality. It has been found that the choroid plexus of the brain ventricles forming the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier plays an important ...

Transgenic Rescue of the LARGEmyd Mouse: A LARGE Therapeutic Window? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
LARGE is a glycosyltransferase involved in glycosylation of α-dystroglycan (α-DG). Absence of this protein in the LARGEmyd mouse results in α-DG hypoglycosylation, and is associated with central nervous system abnormalities and progressive muscular ...

Implementation and Performance of First‐Trimester Referral Ultrasound Scan Following the Introduction of National Guidelines

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
The expert assessment of fetal anatomy before 14 weeks is feasible when adopting a standardized protocol and allows an early diagnosis in most cases at risk for fetal anomaly following first trimester screening ultrasound. ABSTRACT Background To report the implementation across Fetal Medicine units and the agreement between first and second trimester ...

The choroid plexus as a site of damage in hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke and its role in responding to injury

open access: yesFluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2017
While the impact of hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes on the blood–brain barrier has been extensively studied, the impact of these types of stroke on the choroid plexus, site of the blood-CSF barrier, has received much less attention.

T2‐Weighted T1 Mapping and Automated Segmentation of CSF: Assessment of Solute Gradients in the Healthy Brain

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) serves as a medium for nutrient delivery and waste clearance. The T1 relaxation rate, R1, can be used to measure the concentration of intrinsic solutes and extrinsic contrast agents. Purpose To implement a method for R1 mapping and segmentation of CSF and to use this method to explore how R1 of CSF relates ...

Clinical Validation of a Fast MRI Method to Evaluate Brain Vascular and Parenchymal Abnormalities in Sturge‐Weber Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sturge‐Weber syndrome (SWS) is a rare neurocutaneous disorder associated with venous capillary malformations, atrophy, and calcifications. Longitudinal imaging is limited by risks of sedation and gadolinium exposure in children.

BILATERAL CHOROID PLEXUS PAPILLOMA OF LATERAL VENTRICLES [PDF]

open access: yesActa Medica Iranica, 2005
Choroid plexus papillomas are rare intracranial tumors, accounting for less than 1% of all intracranial tumors in adults. However, they are relatively more common in children and constitute 1.5 to 4% of childhood intracranial tumors. In children, choroid
