An MRI assessment of mechanisms underlying lesion growth and shrinkage in multiple sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
By applying the tensor model, we analysed lesion orientation and the directionality of lesion expansion/contraction in multiple sclerosis. Each lesion is summarized as an ellipsoid, and the tensor model is applied to calculate lesion anisotropy. From the top to the bottom white matter atlas, surface‐in gradient segmentation and venous atlas used in the

The implication of cigarette smoking and cessation on macrophage cholesterol efflux in coronary artery disease patients[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2015
We investigated ATP-binding cassette transporters A1/G1 expression and function in mediating cholesterol efflux by examining the macrophages of cigarette-smoking patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) before and after smoking abstinence.

A mathematical model for smooth muscle cell phenotype switching in atherosclerotic plaque [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) play a fundamental role in the development of atherosclerotic plaques. SMCs may ingest lipids in a similar way to monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) in the plaque. This can stimulate SMCs to undergo a phenotypic switch towards a macrophage-like phenotype.

Clinical impact and safety of brain biopsy in unexplained central nervous system disorders: a real‐world cohort study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A substantial part of central nervous system (CNS) disorders remains unexplained, despite various new and minimally invasive diagnostic techniques. Within this rapidly developing diagnostic field, the precise role of brain biopsy is unknown.

Epitope Mapping of Anti‐Neurofascin 155 Antibody in a Large Cohort of Autoimmune Nodopathy Patients

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune nodopathy (AN), a newly recognized disease entity, is an immune‐mediated polyneuropathy involving autoantibodies against cell adhesion molecules located in nodes of Ranvier and paranodal regions, such as neurofascin 186 (NF186) and neurofascin 155 (NF155). The present study aimed to identify the epitopes for autoantibodies
