Brain glucose concentration was measured with an amperometric enzyme electrode using glucose oxidase (EC 1.1.3.4) irreversibly adsorbed onto an organic conducting salt. The responses of the electrode and its stability both in vitro and in vivo are described. Parellel changes in brain glucose and blood glucose (measured in samples from an implanted intra-atrial cannula) following injections of insulin are reported.

To investigate the effects of artificial light at night on the growth of mandibles in mice and its regulatory mechanisms. A mouse model of artificial light at night (night light pollution group) and normal lighting (normal light group) was established by controlling light exposure time, with 4 mice in each group. Micro-CT was employed to analyze the differences in bone quantities of the mandibles between the two groups.

Purpose: As dual-phase amyloid-PET can evaluate amyloid (A) and neurodegeneration (N) with a single tracer injection, dual-phase tau-PET might be able to provide both tau (T) and N. Our study aims to assess the association of early-phase tau-PET scans and F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET and their comparability in discriminating Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and differentiating neurodegenerative patterns.

Methods: 58 subjects evaluated at the Geneva Memory Center underwent dual-phase F-Flortaucipir-PET with early-phase acquisition (eTAU) and F-FDG-PET within 1 year.

Objective: The gut-brain axis (GBA) is involved in the modulation of multiple physiological activities, and the vagus nerve plays an important role in this process. However, the association between vagus nerve function and nutritional regulation remains unclear. Here, we explored changes in the nutritional status of mice after vagotomy and investigated the underlying mechanisms responsible for these changes.

Inflammation and oxidative stress are pivotal factors in the onset and progression of secondary injury following cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Mogroside V (MV), a primary active compound of Siraitia grosvenorii, exhibits significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. However, its specific effects in cerebral ischemia remain unclear.

DNA2, a multifunctional enzyme with structure-specific nuclease, 5 -to-3 helicase, and DNA-dependent ATPase activities, plays a pivotal role in the cellular response to DNA damage. However, its involvement in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remains to be elucidated. This study investigated the involvement of DNA2 in cerebral I/R injury using conditional knockout (cKO) mice ( -Cre) subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), an established model of cerebral I/R.
