High-Field MRI Reveals a Drastic Increase of Hypoxia-Induced Microhemorrhages upon Tissue Reoxygenation in the Mouse Brain with Strong Predominance in the Olfactory Bulb. by Angelika Hoffmann, Reiner Kunze, Xavier Helluy, David Milford, Sabine Heiland, Martin Bendszus, Mirko Pham, Hugo H Marti

“…In contrast, quantitative T2 and apparent-diffusion-coefficient values immediately after hypoxia and after 24 hours of reoxygenation did not show any region-specific alteration, consistent with subtle multifocal but not with regional or global brain edema.…”

Hyperglycemia Reduces Efficiency of Brain Networks in Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes. by Dae-Jin Kim, Ji Hee Yu, Mi-Seon Shin, Yong-Wook Shin, Min-Seon Kim

“…Poorer glycemic control is associated with lower efficiency and longer connection paths of the global brain network in individuals with diabetes. Chronic hyperglycemia in people with diabetes may disrupt the brain's topological integration, and lead to mental slowing and cognitive impairment.…”

Quantifying Differences and Similarities in Whole-Brain White Matter Architecture Using Local Connectome Fingerprints. by Fang-Cheng Yeh, Jean M Vettel, Aarti Singh, Barnabas Poczos, Scott T Grafton, Kirk I Erickson, Wen-Yih I Tseng, Timothy D Verstynen

“…Quantifying differences or similarities in connectomes has been a challenge due to the immense complexity of global brain networks. Here we introduce a noninvasive method that uses diffusion MRI to characterize whole-brain white matter architecture as a single local connectome fingerprint that allows for a direct comparison between structural connectomes. …”

Prion Protein Deficiency Causes Diverse Proteome Shifts in Cell Models That Escape Detection in Brain Tissue. by Mohadeseh Mehrabian, Dylan Brethour, Declan Williams, Hansen Wang, Hélène Arnould, Benoit Schneider, Gerold Schmitt-Ulms

“…Here we report that PrP deficiency causes robust but surprisingly divergent changes to the global proteomes of cell models but has no discernible impact on the global brain proteome. Amongst >1,500 proteins whose levels were compared in wild-type and PrP-deficient models, members of the MARCKS protein family exhibited pronounced, yet cell model-dependent changes to their steady-state levels. …”
