Regional vulnerability of brain white matter in vanishing white matter

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2023
Vanishing white matter (VWM) is a leukodystrophy that primarily manifests in young children. In this disease, the brain white matter is differentially affected in a predictable pattern with telencephalic brain areas being most severely affected, while ...

White matter development in early puberty: a longitudinal volumetric and diffusion tensor imaging twin study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
White matter microstructure and volume show synchronous developmental patterns in children. White matter volume increases considerably during development.

Does functional MRI detect activation in white matter?A review of emerging evidence, issues, and future directions

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a non-invasive technique that allows for visualization of activated brain regions. Until recently, fMRI studies have focused on gray matter.

The role of white matter myelin in structural-functional network coupling [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Biology
The brain is a complex network of neuronal populations interconnected by white matter tracts. The composition of these white matter connections (SC) shapes inter-regional signaling dynamics giving rise to spatial patterns of synchronous functional ...

White matter hyperintensities and normal-appearing white matter integrity in the aging brain [PDF]

open access: yesNeurobiology of Aging, 2015
White matter hyperintensities (WMH) of presumed vascular origin are a common finding in brain magnetic resonance imaging of older individuals and contribute to cognitive and functional decline.

White matter changes underlie hypertension-related cognitive decline in older adults

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2023
Hypertension has been well recognized as a risk factor for cognitive impairment and dementia. Although the underlying mechanisms of hypertension-affected cognitive deterioration are not fully understood, white matter changes (WMCs) seem to play an ...

Metachromatic leukodystrophy and transplantation: remyelination, no cross‐correction

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020
Objective In metachromatic leukodystrophy, a lysosomal storage disorder due to decreased arylsulfatase A activity, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation may stop brain demyelination and allow remyelination, thereby halting white matter degeneration ...

Association between Perivascular Spaces and Progression of White Matter Hyperintensities in Lacunar Stroke Patients. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Perivascular spaces are associated with MRI markers of cerebral small vessel disease, including white matter hyperintensities. Although perivascular spaces are considered to be an early MRI marker of cerebral small vessel disease, it is unknown whether ...

Differential Impact of Plasma Homocysteine Levels on the Periventricular and Subcortical White Matter Hyperintensities on the Brain

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Background: The clinical significance of cerebral white matter hyperintensities (WMH) on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has recently increased, and recognized now as a risk factor for future stroke and dementia. High levels of plasma homocysteine
