Decreased Neuron Density and Increased Glia Density in the Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex (Brodmann Area 25) in Williams Syndrome. [PDF]
Williams Syndrome (WS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a deletion of 25⁻28 genes on chromosome 7 and characterized by a specific behavioral phenotype, which includes hypersociability and anxiety.

Lower cerebral blood flow but not cerebrovascular response in elastin haploinsufficient mice
Abstract Elastin insufficiency is associated with structural differences in the large elastic arteries and cerebral artery dysfunction. However, previous studies have not assessed potential sex differences in cerebrovascular function. We measured cerebral blood flow (CBF) using arterial spin labeling MRI at rest and in response to hypercapnia challenge

Complementarity of BOLD and ADC‐fMRI in Mapping Brain Visual Processing in the Rat
BOLD‐fMRI and ADC‐fMRI were acquired at 9.4 and 14 T during visual stimulation with variable frequency. BOLD‐fMRI showed robust positive/negative responses but depended on regional vascularization patterns. ADC‐fMRI was able to detect neural activity independently from vascular effects at 9.4 T.

Non‐Invasive, High‐Resolution (1H2O) Metabolic Activity Diffusion Imaging [MADI] of Rat Glioma
We employed Metabolic Activity Diffusion Imaging [MADI] and 18FDG‐PET in rats with syngeneic RG2 glioblastoma brain tumors. MADI quantifies kio (the cellular H2O efflux rate constant), cell volume (V), and cell density (ρ), without the use of contrast agents. The kioV product quantifies the rate of water efflux per cell.

Executive Impairment in Huntington's Disease: Insights From a Systematic Review of the Literature
Executive dysfunction in Huntington's disease follows a selective, stage‐dependent pattern, with early deficits in psychomotor speed, cognitive flexibility, inhibition, and working‐memory updating. Progression is associated with broader impairments in planning and attention.

Patients with facial dyskinesias and palsy show distinct white matter geometric microstructural patterns. Meige's syndrome patients exhibit markedly altered white matter integrity and geometry, while facial palsy patients' white matter features correlate with clinical severity.

Axonal growth from cortically placed fetal neural transplants to subcortical targets in adult hosts has been difficult to demonstrate and is assumed to be minimal; however, experiments using xenogeneic neural grafts of either human or porcine fetal ...

Lentivirus-mediated Persephin over-expression in Parkinson′s disease rats
Persephin, together with glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor and neurturin, has a neurotrophic effect and promotes the survival of motor neurons cultured in vitro.

Prolactin action is essential for proper myelination of white matter tracts during neonatal and prepubertal stages in mice. Lack of prolactin receptor (Prlr−/−) signaling leads to hypomyelination and impaired locomotor function. ABSTRACT A large wave of myelination in the central nervous system (CNS) of mammals occurs during postnatal development ...
