The regional distribution of binding sites labeled by [3H]haloperidol, in the presence of excess spiroperidol, was compared to the regional distribution of receptors labeled by [3H]SCH 23390 and [3H]sulpiride, [3H]SCH 23390 and [3H]sulpiride labeled distinct nuclei, such as the olfactory tubercle, caudate, globus pallidus, substantia nigra, and inferior and superior colliculi. In contrast, the distribution of binding sites labeled by [3H]haloperidol, in the presence of excess spiroperidol, were much more extensive. Some areas containing the highest density of sites labeled by [3H]haloperidol were the external plexiform layer of the olfactory bulb, the cerebral cortex, the paraventricular nuclei, the interpeduncular nucleus and the superior colliculus. The distribution of non-dopaminergic binding sites labeled by haloperidol was clearly quite different from that labeled by dopaminergic ligands.

Arterial spin labelling (ASL) enables non-invasive quantification of regional brain perfusion using MRI. ASL was used in the Reducing Pathology in Alzheimer's Disease through Angiotensin TaRgeting (RADAR) multi-centre trial to pilot the assessment of the effects of the anti-hypertension drug losartan on cerebral blood flow (CBF). In the multi-centre setting, disparities in ASL implementation on scanners from different manufacturers lead to inherent differences in measured CBF and its associated parameters (e.

Oral nimodipine is the only drug approved in North America for patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). However, bioavailability is variable and frequently poor, leading to fluctuations in peak plasma concentrations that cause dose-limiting hypotension. Furthermore, administration is problematic in patients who cannot swallow.

Adult neurogenesis has most often been studied in the hippocampus and subventricular zone-olfactory bulb, where newborn neurons contribute to a variety of behaviors. A handful of studies have also investigated adult neurogenesis in other brain regions, but relatively little is known about the properties of neurons added to non-canonical areas. One such region is the striatum.

Importance: The net clinical effect of early vs later direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) initiation after atrial fibrillation-associated ischemic stroke is unclear.

Objective: To investigate whether early DOAC treatment is associated with a net clinical benefit (NCB).

Design, Setting, And Participants: This was a post hoc analysis of the Early Versus Late Initiation of Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Post-Ischaemic Stroke Patients With Atrial Fibrillation (ELAN) open-label randomized clinical trial conducted across 103 sites in 15 countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia between November 6, 2017, and September 12, 2022, with a 90-day follow-up.

Expression and purification of recombinant proteins in is a bedrock technique in biochemistry and molecular biology. Expression optimization requires testing different combinations of solubility tags, affinity purification techniques, and site-specific proteases. This optimization is laborious and time consuming as these features are spread across different vector series and require different cloning strategies with varying efficiencies.
