Central nervous system and systemic oxidative stress interplay with inflammation in a bile duct ligation rat model of type C hepatic encephalopathy

Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Rolf Gruetter, Katarzyna Pierzchala, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Stefanita-Octavian Mitrea, Dunja Simicic

The role and coexistence of oxidative stress (OS) and inflammation in type C hepatic encephalopathy (C HE) is a subject of intense debate. Under normal conditions the physiological levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species are controlled by the count ...

[13C]bicarbonate labelled from hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate is an in vivo marker of hepatic gluconeogenesis in fasted state

Arnaud Comment, Rolf Gruetter, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, Emine Can, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara

Hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate enables direct in vivo assessment of real-time liver enzymatic activities by 13C magnetic resonance. However, the technique usually requires the injection of a highly supraphysiological dose of pyruvate. We herein demonstrate ...

Radical-free hyperpolarized MRI using endogenously occurring pyruvate analogues and UV-induced nonpersistent radicals

Rolf Gruetter, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, Lionel Pierre Arn, Andrea Capozzi, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara, Claudia Christina Zanella, Alice Radaelli

It was recently demonstrated that nonpersistent radicals can be generated in frozen solutions of metabolites such as pyruvate by irradiation with UV light, enabling radical-free dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization. Although pyruvate is endogenous, the ...
