Abstract

Methods for T1 relaxation and diffusion measurements based on magnetic resonance signals from laser-hyperpolarized 129Xe nuclei are introduced. The methods involve optimum use of the perishable hyperpolarized magnetization of 129Xe. The necessary theoretical framework for the methods is developed, and then the methods are applied to measure the longitudinal relaxation constant, T1, and the self-diffusion constant, D, of hyperpolarized 129Xe. In a cell containing natural abundance 129Xe at 790 Torr, the T1 value was determined to be 155 +/- 5 min at 20 degrees C and at 2.0 T field. For a second cell at 896 Torr, at the same field and temperature, the T1 value was determined to be 66 +/- 2 min. At a higher field of 7.05 T, the T1 values for the two cells were found to be 185 +/- 10 and 88 +/- 5 min, respectively. The 129Xe self-diffusion constant for the first cell was measured to be 0.057 cm2/ s and for the second cell it was 0.044 cm2/s. The methods were applied to 129Xe in the gas phase, in vitro; however, they are, in principle, applicable for in vivo or ex vivo studies. The potential role of these methods in the development of newly emerging hyper-polarized 129Xe MRI applications is discussed.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
