The Alpha-Synuclein RT-QuIC Products Generated by the Olfactory Mucosa of Patients with Parkinson’s Disease and Multiple System Atrophy Induce Inflammatory Responses in SH-SY5Y Cells

Cells, 2021
Parkinson’s disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA) are caused by two distinct strains of disease-associated α-synuclein (αSynD). Recently, we have shown that olfactory mucosa (OM) samples of patients with PD and MSA can seed the aggregation of ...

Strain and Strain Rate Echocardiography

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2006
Myocardial function is eventually determined by the shortening and lengthening of myocardium, i.e., myocardial deformation or strain. The exact and direct measure of myocardial deformation has been dependent on the in vitro analysis of myocardial length.
