CEST成像不同量化方式在急性帕金森氏病小鼠模型研究中的应用比较（英文）

本文通过比较7 T场强下化学交换饱和转移(chemical exchange saturation transfer,CEST)成像技术不同量化方式在急性帕金森氏病小鼠模型研究中的应用效果,探讨了客观无创的帕金森氏病研究方案.使用Bruker PharmaScan7 T小动物磁共振成像(Magnetic Resonance Imaging,MRI)扫描仪,对经1-甲基-4-苯基-1,2,3,6-四氢吡啶(1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine,MPTP)急性造模前及造模后第3、10天的小鼠黑质、皮层及海马进行扫描,计算弛豫时间T_1、T_2、MTR_(asym)(magnetization transfer ratio based on asymmetry analysis)、MTR_(rex)(magnetization transfer ratio yielding R_(ex))、AREX(apparent exchange-dependent relaxation)及5池拟合后的胺峰面积Area_(amine)、酰胺峰面积Area_(amide),结果显示仅黑质中融合了倒Z谱分析和5池洛仑兹拟合所得的量化指标MTR_(rex)、AREX及Area_(amine)在造模后显著减小,与黑质免疫组化结果一致,而T_1、T_2以及基于Z谱非对称性分析的MTR_(asym)未见统计学差异,这表明此量化方式消除了直接饱和效应及磁化转移效应的影响,准确性上要优于Z谱非对称分析法,更能正确地提示帕金森氏病黑质的变化.     

块体非晶合金的黏度与玻璃形成能力的关系

基于经典结晶理论讨论了非晶合金的晶化动力学因素和晶化热力学因素对玻璃形成能力（GFA）的影响.分析表明,合金的等温转变（TTT）曲线“鼻尖”温度T_n对应的黏度与晶化阻力因子成正比;重新加热时晶化开始温度T_x对应的黏度与晶化驱动力因子成反比.由此得到了新的GFA参数ω₀=（T_g-T₀）/（T_x-T₀）-（T_g-T₀）/（T_n-T₀）,其中T_g为玻璃转变温度,T₀为理想玻璃转变温度.统计结果显示,ω₀与临界冷却速率具有较高的相关性,R²高达09626.进一步分析表明：新提出的ω₀参数可以合理地解释过冷熔体的黏度、脆性、液相稳定性、热稳定性以及T_rg、ΔT_x、γ、γ_m、ΔT_rg、α、β、δ和φ等参数与GFA的关系. 关键词： 块体非晶合金 黏度 脆性 玻璃形成能力     

交叉关联噪声对光学双稳系统平均首通时间的影响

研究了乘性色噪声和加性白噪声驱动的光学双稳系统中噪声对系统两个方向平均首通时间T₊（x_s1→x_s2）和T_-（x_s2→x_s1）的影响（平均首通时间是指从一稳态出发越过势垒到另一稳态所用时间的平均值）.通过Novikov定理和Fox近似方法得到相应的Fokker-Planck方程,利用最速下降法得到T₊（x_s1→x_s2）和T_-（x_s2→x_s1）的表达式.研究发现：乘性噪声强度Q和加性噪声强度D对T₊（x_s1→x_s2）的影响相同,对T_-（x_s2→x_s1）的影响不同;T₊（x_s1→x_s2）随乘性色噪声自关联时间τ的增大而增大,但随噪声间的交叉关联强度λ的增大而减小;T_-（x_s2→x_s1）随τ的增大而减小,随λ的增大而增大. 关键词： 平均首通时间 光学双稳系统 乘性色噪声 加性白噪声     

回波间隔对核磁共振表观孔隙度的影响及矫正方法

本文对具有特定横向弛豫时间（T₂）的硫酸铜溶液进行了多回波间隔（T_E）的核磁共振（NMR）实验,并利用数值模拟对32组具有不同弛豫分量的模型进行了变T_E模拟实验,定量研究了T_E对致密油气、页岩气等低孔低渗储层NMR孔隙度的影响规律.实验结果表明,随着T_E的增大,各T₂弛豫组分NMR孔隙度先维持在100%左右,然后迅速衰减,当T_E增加到一定数值时,趋近于0;不同T₂弛豫组分NMR孔隙度开始迅速衰减及最后变为0的T_E值存在显著差异.根据不同T₂弛豫组分NMR孔隙度与T_E的关系,将整个NMR测量分为无损测量区、快速衰减区、无效参数区和仪器盲区4个区域.对特定弛豫组分而言,在快速衰减区弛豫组分损失量与T_E呈对数关系,本文还给出了该区域NMR孔隙度的校正公式及方法.     

基于多弛豫信号补偿的快速磁共振T1ρ散布成像

定量磁共振成像（MRI）可量化组织特性,是科学研究和临床研究的重要工具.旋转坐标系下的自旋-晶格弛豫时间（T_1ρ）能反映水与大分子之间的低频交互作用,在3 T及以上的高场环境下,T_1ρ受水和不稳定质子之间化学交换的影响较大,通过测量弛豫率随自旋锁定场强度的变化而得到其分布情况（T_1ρ散布）,可用于分析和量化质子的交换过程,因此T_1ρ散布是一种重要的定量MRI技术.然而,获得不同自旋锁定场强下T_1ρ加权图像的时间过长,限制了其应用范围.针对这一问题,本研究提出一种基于多弛豫信号补偿策略的快速T_1ρ散布成像方法.该方法将不同锁定频率下的T_1ρ加权图像补偿到同一信号强度水平,并结合低秩与稀疏建立重建模型.实验结果表明,该方法在加速倍数高达7倍时仍获得了较好的重建结果.     

基于蒙特卡罗算法的低场核磁共振测量效率提高方法

核磁共振（NMR）的纵向弛豫时间（T₁）、横向弛豫时间（T₂）、自扩散系数（D₀）,以及T₂-T₁、T₂-D₀测量目前广泛应用于石油测井行业.在测量D₀的SGSE序列中,通过逐渐增大90°和180°脉冲之间的时间间隔（T_d）,可以对液体扩散行为产生的影响进行调节.然而T_d的"起点"、"步进数"和"终点"等参数必须设置得当才能准确测量T₁和D₀.目前参数的设置依赖多次的人工调整和测量人员的经验,耗时且使用门槛较高.本文用蒙特卡罗方法进行大量随机模拟,根据前面若干点的测量结果筛选出满足要求的随机值,预测下一个测量点的位置.该算法可以实时更新参数设置,实现自动化测量,达到降低测量门槛、缩短测量时间的目的.经验证,该算法可以适用于T₁、D₀的测量.

固体核磁共振研究半晶聚-3-羟基丁酸酯和聚羟基丁酸戊酸酯的分子动力学

本文在150~370 K温度范围内,采用固体核磁共振（NMR）测定了半晶聚-3-羟基丁酸酯（PHB）,以及3-羟基戊酸酯单体质量分数分别为5%（PHBV5）和12%（PHBV12）的聚羟基丁酸戊酸酯共聚物在实验室坐标系和旋转坐标系条件下质子的自旋-晶格弛豫时间T₁和T_1ρ.通过弛豫时间随温度变化的理论拟合,分别获得上述半晶聚合物晶区和结晶区的分子动力学参数（包括E_a和τ₀）.这些结果从分子水平上阐述了PHB结构修饰和增强的原因.     

DITFB/4-OH-TEMPO体系中卤键作用的19F DNP研究

卤键与氢键相似,是实现分子与分子非共价键连接的作用之一,其广泛地应用于工程材料和生命化学等领域．有关卤键相互作用的动态核极化（DNP）研究还未见报道．本文利用连续波-电子顺磁共振（CW-EPR）谱仪及自主研制的DNP实验平台对存在卤键相互作用的体系——1,4-二碘四氟苯（DITFB）/4-羟基-2,2,6,6-四甲基吡啶-1-氧自由基（4-OH-TEMPO）进行¹⁹F DNP研究,并与无卤键作用对照组——六氟苯（PFB）/4-OH-TEMPO的¹⁹F DNP增强效果进行了比较．结果发现,DITFB/4-OH-TEMPO较PFB/4-OH-TEMPO具有更窄的EPR线宽和更大的¹⁹F DNP增强．这表明自由基与DITFB卤键作用削弱了自由基之间的电子自旋-自旋相互作用,从而使自由基横向弛豫时间（T_2e）增加、线宽变窄,导致DNP饱和因子和增强倍数变大．因此,可以通过卤键调控自由基电子自旋相互作用,以改善核的DNP增强效果．

Magnetostriction and spin reorientation in ferromagnetic Laves phase Pr(Ga_xFe_(1-x))_(1.9) compounds

The magnetostriction, magnetization, and spin reorientation properties in Pr(Ga_xFe_(1-x))_(1.9) alloys have been investigated by high-precision x-ray diffraction(XRD) step scanning, magnetization, and Mo¨ssbauer spectra measurements. Ga substitution reduces the magnetostriction(λ_(||)) with magnetic field H ≥ 8 kOe(1 Oe = 1.33322×10~2 Pa), but it also increases the λ|| value when H ≤ 8 kOe at 5 K. Spin-reorientations(SR) are observed in all the alloys investigated, as determined by the step scanned XRD, Mo¨ssbauer spectra, and the abnormal temperature dependence of magnetization. An increase of the spin reorientation temperature(T_(SR)) due to Ga substitution is found in the phase diagram, which is different from the decrease one in many R(T_x Fe_(1-x))_(1.9)(T = Co, Al, Mn) alloys. The present work provides a method to control the easy magnetization direction(EMD) or T_(SR) for developing an anisotropic compensation system.     

Establishing norms for age-related changes in proton T1 of human brain tissue in vivo

The goal of this study was to determine the expected normal range of variation in spin-lattice relaxation time (T₁) of brain tissue in vivo, as a function of age. A previously validated precise and accurate inversion recovery method was used to map T₁ transversely, at the level of the basal ganglia, in a study population of 115 healthy subjects (ages 4 to 72; 57 male and 58 female). Least-squares regression analysis shows that T₁ varied as a function of age in pulvinar nucleus (R² = 56%), anterior thalamus (R² = 51%), caudate (R² = 50%), frontal white matter (R² = 47%), optic radiation (R² = 39%), putamen (R² = 36%), genu (R² = 22%), occipital white matter (R² = 20%) (all p < 0.0001), and cortical gray matter (R² = 53%) (p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in T₁ between men and women. T₁ declines throughout adolescence and early adulthood, to achieve a minimum value in the fourth to sixth decade of life, then T₁ begins to increase. Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging provides evidence that brain tissue continues to change throughout the lifespan among healthy subjects with no neurologic deficits. Age-related changes follow a strikingly different schedule in different brain tissues; white matter tracts tend to reach a minimum T₁ value, and to increase again, sooner than do gray matter tracts. Such normative data may prove useful for the early detection of brain pathology in patients.     

Macroscopic tumor volume of malignant glioma determined by contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging with and without magnetization transfer contrast

The purposes of this study were to compare the conspicuity and lesion volume of contrast-enhancing macroscopic malignant glioma determined by postcontrast magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with and without magnetization transfer (MT) saturation, and to discuss possible implications for radiotherapy planning. Nineteen patients (age 24–60 years) with histologically proven malignant glioma were prospectively examined by MR imaging. After the administration of gadolinium dimeglumine (0.1 mmol/kg body weight), the lesions were imaged with an MT-weighted FLASH (fast, low-angle shot) pulse sequence and with a conventional T₁-weighted spin-echo (SE) sequence without MT saturation. The mean tumor volumes of gliomas measured on MT-weighted FLASH images were significantly (p < .01) larger than those obtained from T₁-weighted SE images (45 ± 15 cm³ vs. 33 ± 10 cm³). The mean contrast-to-noise ratio of enhancing lesions on MT-weighted FLASH was 48 ± 14 compared with 30 ± 14 on SE images, representing a significant (p < .01) improvement. We conclude that the volume of contrast enhancement of malignant glioma identified on MT-weighted FLASH images represents the area of disrupted blood-brain barrier. If this volume of subtle contrast enhancement is caused by tumor infiltration and represents the boost target volume for stereotactic radiosurgery or brachytherapy, MT-weighted FLASH images would be better than T₁-weighted SE images to define these volumes. These improved delineation of areas at highest risk for recurrence following radiation therapy should enhance the efficacy of treatment planning for high-boost therapy.     

Selection of pulse sequences producing maximum tissue contrast in magnetic resonance imaging

The importance of spin density [N(H)] and spin-lattice (T₁) and spin-spin (T₂) relaxation in the characterization of tissue by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is clearly recognized. This work considers which optimized pulse sequences provide the best tissue discrimination between a given pair of tissues. The effects of tissue spin density and machine-imposed minimum rephasing echo times (TE_MIN) for achieving maximum signal tissue contrast are discussed. A long TE_MIN sacrifices T₁-dependent contrast in saturation recovery (SR) and inversion recovery (IR) pulse sequences so that spin-echo (SE) becomes the optimum sequence to provide tissue contrast, due to T₂ relaxation. Pulse sequences providing superior performance may be selected based on spin density and T₁ and T₂ ratios for a given pair of tissues. Selection of the preferred pulse sequence and interpulse delay times to produce maximum tissue contrast is strongly dependent on knowledge of tissue spin densities as well as T₁ and T₂ characteristics. As the spin density ratio increases, IR replaces SR as the preferred sequence and SE replaces IR and SR as the pulse sequence providing superior contrast. To select the optimal pulse sequence and interpulse delay times, an accurate knowledge of tissue spin density, T₁ and T₂ must be known for each tissue.     

N=2 6-dimensional supersymmetric E6 breaking

We study the N=2 supersymmetric E₆ models on the 6-dimensional space–time where the supersymmetry and gauge symmetry can be broken by the discrete symmetry. On the space–time M⁴×S¹/(Z₂×Z₂′)×S¹/(Z₂×Z₂′), for the zero modes, we obtain the 4-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric models with gauge groups SU(3)×SU(2)×SU(2)×U(1)², SU(4)×SU(2)×SU(2)×U(1), and SU(3)×SU(2)×U(1)³ with one extra pair of Higgs doublets from the vector multiplet. In addition, considering that the extra space manifold is the annulus A² and disc D², we list all the constraints on constructing the 4-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric SU(3)×SU(2)×U(1)³ models for the zero modes, and give the simplest model with Z₉ symmetry. We also comment on the extra gauge symmetry breaking and its generalization.

Study of activation parameters and NMR spin-lattice relaxation time in some substituted amines

The present communication reports the experimental values of NMR spin-lattice relaxation time (T₁) and dielectric relaxation time (τ) of piperidine, pyrrole, pyridine, diethylamine, triethylamine and pyrrolidine. The values of activation energy (ΔE_A) obtained using dielectric relaxation time, have been correlated with calculated values of ΔE_A obtained using Arrhenius equation of NMR relaxation time (T₁) for pyridine, diethylamine and pyrrole. Authors have also established a correlation between the experimental values of NMR spin-relaxation time (T₁) with its calculated values obtained using different equations of dielectric relaxation time (τ).     

Influence of magnetization on lattice constants of 3d transition metal alloys

A simple relation is found in 3d transitional metal alloys between the lattice constant and the magnetization, which can be described with an equation: a(x) = a₀^A· (1 − x) + a₀^B. x + C μ(x). It is proposed that studies of lattice constants at high temperatures may serve as an experimental method to detect the existence of localized moments above T_c. The anomalous thermal expansion of the Invar alloy is explained as a result of the collapse of localized moments above T_c.     

Diffusion of W on A W(211) plane

The diffusion of W on a (211) plane of a W field emitter has been re-examined by means of the fluctuation autocorrelation method. Diffusion along channels yielded E = 16.8 ± 0.5 kcal, D₀ = (3 ± 1) × 10⁻⁵ cm² s⁻¹. For diffusion across channels E =6.6 kcal, D₀ = 4 × 10⁻⁹cm² s⁻¹ at T < 752 K, and E = 24 kcal, D₀ = 5 × 10⁻⁴ cm² s⁻¹ at T > 752 K. The results for diffusion along channels yield E and D₀ values intermediate between recent results by Wang and Ehrlich [Surf. Sci. 206 (1988) 451] using field ion microscopy (E = 19 kcal, D₀ = 7.7 × 10⁻³ cm² s⁻¹) and Tringides and Gomer [J. Chem. Phys. 84 (1986) 4049], using the same method as the present work but a larger slit (E = 13.3 kcal, D₀ = 7 × 10⁻⁷ cm² s⁻¹). The results for cross channel diffus good agreement with those of Tringides and Gomer below 752 K, where these authors stopped. The new high temperature results suggest that the channel wall exchange mechanism postulated by Tringides and Gomer for cross channel diffusion at low T gives way to diffusion by climbing over the channel walls with higher E but also higher D₀ above 752 K. Possible reasons for the discrepancies between these three sets of results and the absence of cross channel diffusion in the work of Wang and Ehrlich are briefly discussed.     

Nuclear magnetic resonance relaxometry of the normal heart: Relationship between collagen content and relaxation times of the four chambers

The use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation time measurements for characterization of abnormal cardiac tissue depends upon knowledge of variations of relaxation times of normal myocardium and determinants of these variations. We calculated in vitro NMR T₁ and T₂ relaxation times of canine myocardium from the four cardiac chambers, and determined hydroxyproline concentration (as a measure of collagen) and percent water content of the samples. We found both water content and T₁ relaxation time of the right ventricle to be significantly greater than the left atrium (p < 0.05). T₂ relaxation time of the left ventricle was found to be shorter than each of the other three chambers (p < 0.05). There were significant correlations between the spin-lattice relaxation time and both percent water content (r = 0.58) and hydroxyproline concentration (r = 0.45). A significant correlation was also found between T₂ relaxation time and hydroxyproline concentration (r = 0.49). When T₁ and T₂ were adjusted for water and hydroxyproline content, there was no longer any evidence for significant interchamber differences for either T₁ or T₂. These data suggest that differences in NMR relaxation times exist among the four chambers of the normal canine heart. Furthermore, a major determinant of myocardial spin-lattice relaxation time is tissue water content while both collagen content and percent water content significantly contribute to variability in cardiac chamber T₂ relaxation times.
