ALTERATIONS OF IRON LEVEL IN THE BILATERAL BASAL GANGLIA REGION IN PATIENTS WITH MIDDLE CEREBRAL ARTERY OCCLUSION

Alterations of Iron Level in the Bilateral Basal Ganglia Region in Patients With Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion

Background and Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the changes of iron level using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) in the bilateral basal ganglia region in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) patients with long-term ischemia.Methods: Twenty-seven healthy controls and nine patients with pentair hose MCAO were recruited, a

Archaeal DNA Repair Mechanisms

Archaea often thrive in environmental extremes, enduring levels of heat, pressure, salinity, pH, and radiation that prove intolerable to most life.Many environmental extremes raise the cashel tail bag propensity for DNA damaging events and thus, impact DNA stability, placing greater reliance on molecular mechanisms that recognize DNA damage and ini
