Prenatal auditory experience and its sequelae

Towards the end of the second trimester of gestation, a human fetus is able to register environmental sounds. This in utero auditory experience is characterized by comprising strongly low-pass-filtered versions of sounds from the external world. Here, we p ...

Through-Plane Super-Resolution With Autoencoders in Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Developing Human Brain

Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Gabriel Girard, Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez, Hamza Kebiri

Fetal brain diffusion magnetic resonance images (MRI) are often acquired with a lower through-plane than in-plane resolution. This anisotropy is often overcome by classical upsampling methods such as linear or cubic interpolation. In this work, we employ a ...

Variations of intracellular density during the cell cycle arise from tip-growth regulation in fission yeast

Emrah Bostan, Pascal Damian Odermatt

Intracellular density impacts the physical nature of the cytoplasm and can globally affect cellular processes, yet density regulation remains poorly understood. Here, using a new quantitative phase imaging method, we determined that dry-mass density in fis ...

Methods for functional connectivity and morphometry in neonatal neuroimaging to study neurodevelopment

Serafeim Loukas

Preterm birth is a major pediatric health problem that perturbs the genetically determined program of corticogenesis of the developing brain. As a consequence, prematurity has been strongly associated with adverse long-term neurodevelopmental outcome that ...

Simulated Half-Fourier Acquisitions Single-shot Turbo Spin Echo (HASTE) of the Fetal Brain: Application to Super-Resolution Reconstruction

Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Thomas Yu, Reto Meuli, Sébastien Tourbier, Patric Hagmann, Hamza Kebiri

Accurate characterization of in utero human brain maturation is critical as it involves complex interconnected structural and functional processes that may influence health later in life. Magnetic resonance imaging is a powerful tool complementary to the u ...

Music enhances structural maturation of emotional processing neural pathways in very preterm infants

Nicolas Kunz, Laura Ioana Gui, François Lazeyras

Prematurity disrupts brain maturation by exposing the developing brain to different noxious stimuli present in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and depriving it from meaningful sensory inputs during a critical period of brain development, leading to ...

Dynamics of brain function in preterm-born young adolescents

Lorena Gonçalves de Alcântara e Freitas Krikler

Preterm birth is a major risk factor for neurodevelopment impairments often only appearing later in life. The brain is still at a high rate of development during adolescence, making this a promising window for intervention. It is thus crucial to understand ...

Longitudinal study of neonatal brain tissue volumes in preterm infants and their ability to predict neurodevelopmental outcome

Djalel Eddine Meskaldji, Laura Ioana Gui, Serafeim Loukas

Premature birth has been associated with poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. However, the relation between such outcomes and brain growth in the neonatal period has not yet been fully elucidated. This study investigates longitudinal brain development between ...

At the Intersection of Microbiota and Circadian Clock: Are Sexual Dimorphism and Growth Hormones the Missing Link to Pathology? Circadian Clock and Microbiota: Potential Egffect on Growth Hormone and Sexual Development

Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Benjamin Dieter Weger

Reciprocal interactions between the host circadian clock and the microbiota are evidenced by recent literature. Interestingly, dysregulation of either the circadian clock or microbiota is associated with common human pathologies such as obesity, type 2 dia ...

Transcriptomic regulations in oligodendroglial and microglial cells related to brain damage following fetal growth restriction

Yohan Van de Looij, Maxime Olivier Baud

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a major complication of human pregnancy, frequently resulting from placental vascular diseases and prenatal malnutrition, and is associated with adverse neurocognitive outcomes throughout life. However, the mechanisms link ...

Lactoferrin during lactation reduces lipopolysaccharide-induced brain injury

Yohan Van de Looij

Lactoferrin (Lf), component of maternal milk, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Neuroprotective effects of Lf on the immature brain have been recently shown in rodent models of intrauterine growth restriction and cerebral hyp ...

Structural Brain Network Reorganization and Social Cognition Related to Adverse Perinatal Condition from Infancy to Early Adolescence

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Elda Fischi Gomez

Adverse conditions during fetal life have been associated to both structural and functional changes in neurodevelopment from the neonatal period to adolescence. In this study, connectomics was used to assess the evolution of brain networks from infancy to ...

Brain network characterization of high-risk preterm-born school-age children

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Alessandra Griffa, Elda Fischi Gomez, François Lazeyras

Higher risk for long-term cognitive and behavioral impairments is one of the hallmarks of extreme prematurity (EP) and pregnancy-associated fetal adverse conditions such as intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). While neurodevelopmental delay and abnormal ...

Unaltered cocaine self-administration in the prenatal LPS rat model of schizophrenia

Erika Myrna Borcel Novoa

Although cocaine abuse is up to three times more frequent among schizophrenic patients, it remains unclear why this should be the case and whether sex influences this relationship. Using a maternal immune activation model of schizophrenia, we tested whethe ...

Structural Brain Connectivity in School-Age Preterm Infants Provides Evidence for Impaired Networks Relevant for Higher Order Cognitive Skills and Social Cognition

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Elda Fischi Gomez, Patric Hagmann, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji, François Lazeyras

Extreme prematurity and pregnancy conditions leading to intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) affect thousands of newborns every year and increase their risk for poor higher order cognitive and social skills at school age. However, little is known about t ...

Connectomics across development : towards mapping brain structure from birth to childhood

Elda Fischi Gomez

The brain is probably the most complex system of the human body, composed of numerous neural units interconnected at dierent scales. This highly structured architecture provides the ability to communicate, synthesize information and perform the analytical ...
