Propagated Infra-Slow Intrinsic Brain Activity Reorganizes Across Wake And Slow Wave Sleep, Anish Mitra, Abraham Z. Snyder, Enzo Tagliazucchi, Helmut Laufs, Marcus E. Raichle

Open Access Publications

Propagation of slow intrinsic brain activity has been widely observed in electrophysiogical studies of slow wave sleep (SWS). However, in human resting state fMRI (rs-fMRI), intrinsic activity has been understood predominantly in terms of zero-lag temporal synchrony (functional connectivity) within systems known as resting state networks (RSNs). Prior rs-fMRI studies have found that RSNs are generally preserved across wake and sleep. Here, we use a recently developed analysis technique to study propagation of infra-slow intrinsic blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) signals in normal adults during wake and SWS. This analysis reveals marked changes in propagation patterns in SWS vs. wake. …

Hunter, A Miguel Guzman, Adarsh S. Reddy, Elizabeth Y. Qin, Yedda Li, Steven J. Gray, Daniel S. Ory, Mark S. Sands

Open Access Publications

Globoid cell leukodystrophy (GLD, Krabbe disease) is a lysosomal storage disease (LSD) caused by a deficiency in galactocerebrosidase (GALC) activity. In the absence of GALC activity, the cytotoxic lipid, galactosylsphingosine (psychosine), accumulates in the CNS and peripheral nervous system. Oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells are particularly sensitive to psychosine, thus leading to a demyelinating phenotype. Although hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation provides modest benefit in both presymptomatic children and the murine model (Twitcher), there is no cure for GLD. In addition, GLD has been relatively refractory to virtually every experimental therapy attempted. Here, Twitcher mice were simultaneously treated with CNS-directed gene therapy, substrate …

Uni-Directional Ciliary Membrane Protein Trafficking By A Cytoplasmic Retrograde Ift Motor And Ciliary Ectosome Shedding, Muqing Cao, Jue Ning, Carmen I. Hernandez-Lara, Olivier Belzile, Qian Wang, Susan K. Dutcher, Yanjie Liu, William J. Snell

Open Access Publications

The role of the primary cilium in key signaling pathways depends on dynamic regulation of ciliary membrane protein composition, yet we know little about the motors or membrane events that regulate ciliary membrane protein trafficking in existing organelles. Recently, we showed that cilium-generated signaling in Chlamydomonas induced rapid, anterograde IFT-independent, cytoplasmic microtubule-dependent redistribution of the membrane polypeptide, SAG1-C65, from the plasma membrane to the periciliary region and the ciliary membrane. Here, we report that the retrograde IFT motor, cytoplasmic dynein 1b, is required in the cytoplasm for this rapid redistribution. Furthermore, signaling-induced trafficking of SAG1-C65 into cilia is unidirectional and …


Dorsal Inlay Buccal Mucosal Graft (Asopa) Urethroplasty For Anterior Urethral Stricture, Stephen D. Marshall, Valary T. Raup, Steven B. Brandes Feb 2015

Dorsal Inlay Buccal Mucosal Graft (Asopa) Urethroplasty For Anterior Urethral Stricture, Stephen D. Marshall, Valary T. Raup, Steven B. Brandes

Open Access Publications

Asopa described the inlay of a graft into Snodgrass's longitudinal urethral plate incision using a ventral sagittal urethrotomy approach in 2001. He claimed that this technique was easier to perform and led to less tissue ischemia due to no need for mobilization of the urethra. This approach has subsequently been popularized among reconstructive urologists as the dorsal inlay urethroplasty or Asopa technique. Depending on the location of the stricture, either a subcoronal circumferential incision is made for penile strictures, or a midline perineal incision is made for bulbar strictures. Other approaches for penile urethral strictures include the non-circumferential penile incisional …
