    Abstract The study of neurodegenerative processes in the human brain requires a comprehensive understanding of cytoarchitectonic, myeloarchitectonic, and vascular structures. Recent computational advances have enabled volumetric reconstruction of the human brain using thousands of stained slices, however, tissue distortions and loss resulting from standard histological processing have hindered deformation-free reconstruction of the human brain. The development of a multi-scale and volumetric human brain imaging technique that can measure intact brain structure would be a major technical advance. Here, we describe the development of integrated serial sectioning Polarization Sensitive Optical Coherence Tomography (PSOCT) and Two Photon Microscopy (2PM) to provide label-free multi-contrast imaging, including scattering, birefringence and autofluorescence of human brain tissue. We demonstrate that high-throughput reconstruction of 4×4×2cm

    Abstract Previous studies identified that microRNAs (miRNAs) have promising diagnostic and prognostic value against sepsis. MiR-486 was demonstrated to be upregulated in sepsis. However, the detailed role and underlying mechanism of miR-486 in the inflammatory response of sepsis are still unclear. In this research, macrophages were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish a sepsis model in vitro. qRT-PCR was used to detect miR-486 expression and the mRNA levels of sirtuin (SIRT1), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-1β. ELISA assay was performed to measure the levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β. SIRT1 protein expression was determined by Western blot analysis. The targeted relationship of miR-486 and SIRT1 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Our data supported that miR-486 was upregulated in the serum of sepsis patients. MiR-486 expression and inflammatory response were elevated by LPS stimulation in macrophages. MiR-486 silencing or SIRT1 overexpression alleviated inflammatory response in LPS-stimulated macrophages. Moreover, SIRT1 was a direct target of miR-486. Anti-miR-486-mediated anti-inflammatory response in LPS-stimulated macrophages was antagonized by SIRT1 inhibition. Our data suggested that miR-486 silencing alleviated inflammatory response in macrophages under LPS stimulation at least partly through targeting SIRT1. Targeting miR-486 may provide a novel way to protect against dysregulated inflammatory response in sepsis patients.

    Abstract Purpose: The Metis
    Methods: Energy resolution, spatial resolution, sensitivity, scatter fraction (SF), noise-equivalent count rate (NECR), and image quality (IQ) characteristics were measured. A micro Derenzo phantom experiment was performed to evaluate the spatial resolution using three-dimensional ordered-subsets expectation maximization (3D-OSEM) and maximum likelihood expectation maximization (MLEM) reconstructed images. In addition, the CT imaging agent Ioverol 350 was mixed with fluorine-18 (
    Results: The mean energy resolution of the system was 15.3%. The tangential resolution was 0.82 mm full-width half-maximum (FWHM) at the center of the field of the view (FOV), and the radial and axial resolution were generally lower than 2.0 mm FWHM. The spatial resolution was significantly improved when using 3D-OSEM, especially the axial FWHM could be improved by up to about 57%. The system absolute sensitivity was 7.7% and 6.8% for an energy window of 200-750 and 350-750 keV respectively. The scatter fraction was 8.2% and 12.1% for the mouse- and rat-like phantom respectively. The peak NECR was 1343.72 kcps at 69 MBq and 640.32 kcps at 53 MBq for the mouse- and rat-like phantom respectively. The 1-mm fillable rod in the IQ phantom can be clearly observed. We can identify the 0.6-mm aperture of the micro Derenzo phantom image clearly using 3D-OSEM (10 subsets, 5 iterations). We also performed the fusion of the PET and CT images of the mouse and the brain imaging of the rat.
    Conclusions: The results show that the system has the characteristics of high-resolution, high-sensitivity, and excellent IQ and is suitable for rodent imaging-based research.
