The aim of this study was to provide data on the dose dependence of manganese-enhanced MRI (MEMRI) in the visual pathway of experimental rats and to study the toxicity of MnCl₂ to the retina. Sprague-Dawley rats were intravitreally injected with
The impairment of axonal transport by overexpression or hyperphosphorylation of tau is well documented for in vitro conditions; however, only a few studies on this phenomenon have been conducted in vivo, using invasive procedures, and with contradictory results. Here we
Chronic exposure to Mn results in the development of a neurological disorder known as manganism characterized by neurological deficits resembling that seen in Parkinsonism. Although dopaminergic neurons within the nigrostriatal pathway appear intact, Mn-induced irregularities in DA transmission have been

To investigate the potential of manganese (Mn)-enhanced MRI for sensitive detection and delineation of tumors that demonstrate little enhancement on Gd-DTPA. Eighteen nude rats bearing 1 to 2 cm in diameter orthotopic breast tumors (ZR75 and LM2) were imaged on
The role of normal cellular prion protein (PrP) remains to be fully elucidated; however, the protein is crucial for the infection and progression of prion diseases. Recent evidence indicates that PrP is a metalloprotein since the octapeptide repeat sequences in
