Imaging unconditioned fear response with manganese-enhanced MRI (MEMRI)
Recent use of manganese-enhanced MRI (MEMRI) to assess the neural circuitry involved in autonomic and somatosensory paradigms has been promising. The current study addresses the feasibility of utilizing this technique to assess more complex cognitive and emotional processes. Since olfactory cues are particularly salient to animals, we utilized odorless air, novel/arousing and novel/fear-inducin...
متن کاملEvaluation of radiotherapy using Manganese-enhanced MRI (MEMRI)
INTRODUCTION Radiotherapy using high-energy X-rays or ionized-particles has been applied to treat malignant tumor with the intention of killing or inactivating cells while preserving normal tissue integrity [1]. The intracellular contrast agent MnCl2 can be used to assess cell viability in heart ischemia [2]. In addition, Aoki et al. reported that Mn can enter non-phagocytotic/non-depolarizing ...
متن کاملReproducible imaging of rat corticothalamic pathway by longitudinal manganese-enhanced MRI (L-MEMRI)
Manganese-enhanced MRI (MEMRI) has been described as a powerful tool to depict the architecture of neuronal circuits. The aim of the present study was to optimize the experimental conditions of MEMRI that permits the study of insult-induced alterations of the somatosensory pathway in a longitudinal way, and to provide functional information on rat corticothalamic connectivity or disturbances th...
متن کاملManganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MEMRI).
Manganese ion (Mn2+) is an essential metal that participates as a cofactor in a number of critical biological functions, such as electron transport, detoxification of free radicals and synthesis of neurotransmitters. Mn2+ can enter excitable cells using some of the same transport systems as Ca2+ and it can bind to a number of intracellular sites because it has high affinity for Ca2+ and Mg2+ bi...
متن کاملIn vivo Tracing of Cortical Laminar Structure in the Rodent Olfactory System using Manganese-Enhanced MRI (MEMRI)
Introduction: It has been shown that manganese-enhanced MRI (MEMRI) could be used to perform anterograde neuronal tract tracing in a number of neural systems, including olfactory pathway [1,2]. Recently, laminar structure in the somatosensory cortex could also be imaged by MEMRI [3,4]. The purpose of this study was to determine if MEMRI could distinguish laminar specificity in the olfactory sys...
