All-Polymer Printed Low-Cost Regenerative Nerve Cuff Electrodes

Silvestro Micera

Neural regeneration after lesions is still limited by several factors and new technologies are developed to address this issue. Here, we present and test in animal models a new regenerative nerve cuff electrode (RnCE). It is based on a novel low-cost fabri ...

Probing myelin content of the human brain with MRI: A review

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Gian Franco Piredda

Rapid and efficient transmission of electric signals among neurons of vertebrates is ensured by myelin-insulating sheaths surrounding axons. Human cognition, sensation, and motor functions rely on the integrity of these layers, and demyelinating diseases o ...

DWI Simulation-Assisted Machine Learning Models for Microstructure Estimation

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez, Gabriel Girard, Jonathan Rafael Patino Lopez, Thomas Yu, Muhamed Barakovic, Marco Pizzolato

Diffusion MRI (DW-MRI) allows for the detailed exploration of the brain white matter microstructure, with applications in both research and the clinic. However, state-of-the-art methods for microstructure estimation suffer from known limitations, such as t ...

Cryo-EM, X-ray diffraction, and atomistic simulations reveal determinants for the formation of a supramolecular myelin-like proteolipid lattice

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

Myelin protein P2 is a peripheral membrane protein of the fatty acid–binding protein family that functions in the formation and maintenance of the peripheral nerve myelin sheath. Several P2 gene mutations cause human Charcot–Marie–Tooth neuropathy, but the ...

Model-informed machine learning for multi-component T2 relaxometry

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez, Elda Fischi Gomez, Gian Franco Piredda, Thomas Yu, Cristina Granziera, Muhamed Barakovic, Marco Pizzolato

Recovering the distribution from multi-echo magnetic resonance (MR) signals is challenging but has high potential as it provides biomarkers characterizing the tissue micro-structure, such as the myelin water fraction (MWF). In this work, we propose to comb ...

Axon morphology is modulated by the local environment and impacts the noninvasive investigation of its structure-function relationship

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Jonathan Rafael Patino Lopez, Tim Bjørn Dyrby

Axonal conduction velocity, which ensures efficient function of the brain network, is related to axon diameter. Noninvasive, in vivo axon diameter estimates can be made with diffusion magnetic resonance imaging, but the technique requires three-dimensional ...

Challenges for biophysical modeling of microstructure

Ileana Ozana Jelescu

The biophysical modeling efforts in diffusion MRI have grown considerably over the past 25 years. In this review, we dwell on the various challenges along the journey of bringing a biophysical model from initial design to clinical implementation, identifyi ...

Repetitive Erythropoietin Treatment Improves Long-Term Neurocognitive Outcome by Attenuating Hyperoxia-Induced Hypomyelination in the Developing Brain

Yohan Van de Looij

Introduction:Preterm infants born before 28 weeks of gestation are at high risk of neurodevelopmental impairment in later life. Cerebral white and gray matter injury is associated with adverse outcomes. High oxygen levels, often unavoidable in neonatal int ...
