Computed tomography (CT) is the current standard for time-critical decision-making in stroke patients, informing decisions on thrombolytic therapy with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), which has a narrow therapeutic index. We aimed to develop CT-based method directly visualize cerebrovascular thrombi and guide therapy. Glycol-chitosan-coated gold nanoparticles (GC-AuNPs) were synthesized conjugated fibrin-targeting peptides, forming fib-GC-AuNP. This targeted imaging agent non-targeted...
Background and Purpose: One-fifth of ischemic strokes are embolic undetermined source (ESUS). Their theoretical causes can be classified as cardioembolic versus noncardioembolic. This distinction has important implications, but the categories’ proportions unknown. Methods: Using data from Cornell Acute Stroke Academic Registry, we trained a machine-learning algorithm to distinguish non-cardioembolic strokes, then applied ESUS cases determine predicted proportion with an occult source. A...
Abstract Since the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a growing number cases acute transverse myelitis associated with COVID-19 have been reported. Here, we present case patient who developed sensory ataxia after MR lesions suggestive for longitudinal and in splenium corpus callosum. The was successfully treated immunoadsorption.
Quantitative imaging for the noninvasive assessment of thrombolysis is needed to advance basic and clinical thrombosis-related research tailor tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) treatment stroke patients. We quantified evolution cerebral thromboemboli using fibrin-targeted glycol chitosan-coated gold nanoparticles microcomputed tomography, with/without tPA therapy.We injected thrombi into distal internal carotid artery in mice (n=50). Fifty-five minutes later, we nanoparticles, 5 after...
A Newcastle disease virus (NDV)-vectored vaccine expressing clade 2.3.4.4b H5 Hemagglutinin was developed and assessed for efficacy against H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in specific pathogen-free (SPF) chickens, broilers, domestic ducks. In SPF the live recombinant NDV-vectored vaccine, rK148/22-H5, achieved complete survival HPAI NDV challenges significantly reduced viral shedding. Notably, rK148/22-H5 conferred good clinical protection broilers despite presence of...
The aim of this study is to identify the principal circulating factors that modulate atheromatous matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity in response diet and exercise.Methods Results:Apolipoprotein-E knock-out (ApoE-/-) mice (n=56) with pre-existing plaque, fed either a Western (WD) or normal (ND), underwent 10 weeks treadmill exercise had no treatment. Atheromatous MMP was visualized using molecular imaging MMP-2/9 activatable near-infrared fluorescent (NIRF) probe. Exercise did not...
Abstract Background To examine the pathological effect of a mesial temporal seizure onset zone (SOZ) on local and inter-regional response to faces in amygdala other structures lobe. Methods Intracranial EEG data was obtained from amygdala, hippocampus, fusiform gyrus parahippocampal nine patients with drug-refractory epilepsy during visual stimulation mosaics. We analyzed event-related potentials (ERP), gamma frequency power, phase-amplitude coupling phase-slope-index compared results...
