Evaluation of Intraperitoneal [18F]-FDOPA Administration for Micro-PET Imaging in Mice and Assessment of the Effect of Subchronic Ketamine Dosing on Dopamine Synthesis Capacity by Els F. Halff, Sridhar Natesan, David R. Bonsall, Mattia Veronese, Anna Garcia-Hidalgo, Michelle Kokkinou, Sac-Pham Tang, Laura J. Riggall, Roger N. Gunn, Elaine E. Irvine, Dominic J. Withers, Lisa A. Wells, Oliver D. Howes

“…Positron emission tomography (PET) using the radiotracer [18F]-FDOPA provides a tool for studying brain dopamine synthesis capacity in animals and humans. We have previously standardised a micro-PET methodology in mice by intravenously administering [18F]-FDOPA via jugular vein cannulation and assessment of striatal dopamine synthesis capacity, indexed as the influx rate constant KiMod of [18F]-FDOPA, using an extended graphical Patlak analysis with the cerebellum as a reference region. …”

Erbin Regulates Tissue Factors Through Ras/Raf Pathway in Coagulation Disorders in Sepsis by Yang C, Lei C, Jing G, Xia Y, Zhou H, Wu D, Zuo J, Gong H, Wang X, Dong Y, Aidebaike D, Wu X, Song X

“…However, the role of Erbin in coagulation disorders in sepsis and the relationship between Erbin and macrophage regulation of coagulation function are still unclear.Methods: At the cellular level, macrophages were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or MEK inhibitor (PD98059), protein expression levels were detected by Western blot, co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP), and immunofluorescence, mRNA expression levels were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and the concentration of tissue factor (TF) in cell supernatant was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). At the animal level, the cecal ligation and perforation (CLP) model was constructed in mice, and the inflammatory response and coagulation disorder of mice were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, immunohistochemistry, ELISA, and automatic hemagglutination analyzer. …”
