Renal perfusion in scleroderma patients assessed by microbubble-based contrast-enhanced ultrasound [PDF]
, 2012 OBJECTIVES: Renal damage is common in scleroderma. It can occur acutely or chronically. Renal reserve might already be impaired before it can be detected by laboratory findings.

Enhanced microbubble contrast agent oscillation following 250 kHz insonation
Scientific Reports, 2018 Microbubble contrast agents are widely used in ultrasound imaging and therapy, typically with transmission center frequencies in the MHz range. Currently, an ultrasound center frequency near 250 kHz is proposed for clinical trials in which ultrasound ...

Early detection of osteoarthritis in rabbits using MRI with a double-contrast agent
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2018 Background Articular cartilage degeneration has been evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, this method has several problems, including its time-consuming nature and the requirement of a high magnetic field or specialized hardware.

RNA‐related functions of BRCA2 in transcription, replication, and genome stability
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Beyond its role in homologous recombination, BRCA2 regulates R‐loop homeostasis, DNA–RNA hybrid resolution, RNA polymerase II dynamics, and transcriptional activation. Disruption of any of these functions can contribute to genome instability, inflammatory signaling, and tumorigenesis. BRCA2 is a central tumor suppressor protein best known for its roles

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

The Challenge of T1 Contrast Agents for High-Magnetic Field MRI
CHIMIA, 2011 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most powerful diagnostic techniques used in clinics. The need for higher spatial resolution and better sensitivity led to the development of imagers working at high magnetic fields.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Anaesthesia Fluid Detection in 3D Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound Image [PDF]
, 2011 Ultrasound medical image has disadvantage on displaying anaesthesia fluid due to its low intensity. Using contrast agent to enhance brightness of fluid area makes it possible to extract fluid area from acquired 3D image. This paper proposes
