Neuropsychological sequelae of aneurysmal sub-arachnoid haemorrhage in patients without neurological deficits 6 to 8 months post operatively : an exploratory study
… about the neuropsychological sequelae of sub-arachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) and to date, there has only been one study (Ljunggren et al, 1985) focussing on patients without neurological deficits after aneurysm surgery for major SAH. A detailed exploratory study was designed to investigate the …

Obesity, 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and metabolic changes in the pathogenesis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension
… ICP regulating structures (choroid plexus and arachnoid granulation tissue), are potential glucocorticoid target tissues expressing 11β-HSD1. Metabolomic analysis identified a unique biofluid metabolite biomarker profile, with potential implications for IIH pathogenesis. We established the …

A 2-D Analysis of Strains at the Interface Between the Brain and the Skull
… Strain magnitudes were elevated in the sub-arachnoid space, and strain concentrations were evident near the<em> falx cerebri</em>. Additionally, we found that strain magnitudes at the brain-skull interface were increased in skulls with regions of relatively high curvature. Taken together, …

Meningeal Fibrosis in the Axolotl Spinal Cord: Extracellular Matrix and Cellular Responses
… as does mammalian meninges; the dura mater, arachnoid mater, and pia mater. The role of reactive meningeal and ependymal cells is also investigated in regard to the deposition and remodeling of the fibrotic ECM, which is found to be similar in composition to hydrogel scaffolds being studied …

The role of retinoids in the regeneration of the axolotl spinal cord
… glia limitans, 2) CRABP 2 is expressed in the arachnoid and/or dura mater meningeal layers surrounding the spinal cord, and 3) RALDH 2 is expressed in the meninges as well as cytoplasm of grey matter neurons and some ependymal/sub-ependymal cells. In the regenerating cord, CRBP 1 is expressed …

Characterization of Cre Mouse Models to Target CNS Barriers for Generating Conditional Knockouts of ABC Transporters
The central nervous system (CNS) includes the brain and spinal cord, where both possess a blood to brain and a blood to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) and blood-CSF barrier (BCSFB) regulate the passage of many molecules to maintain and protect these sensitive …

MAPK and pro-inflammatory mediators in the walls of brain blood vessels following cerebral ischemia
… into two categories: intracerebral and subarachnoid hemorrhage. Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is due to the rupture of a small artery (arterioles) which bleeds within the brain tissue. It is often associated with chronic high blood pressure and the symptoms often begin with severe …
