Longitudinal follow-up and characterization of a robust rat model for Parkinson's disease based on overexpression of alpha-synuclein with adeno-associated viral vectors.

Neurobiol. Aging 36 , 1543-58, (2015)

Testing of new therapeutic strategies for Parkinson's disease (PD) is currently hampered by the lack of relevant and reproducible animal models. Here, we developed a robust rat model for PD by injection of adeno-associated viral vectors (rAAV2/7) encoding α-s...

Deactivation effects of the lowest excited state of Ho3+ at 2.9 μm emission introduced by Pr3+ ions in LiLuF4 crystal.

Optics Letters 37(24) , 5241-3, (2012)

The use of Pr3+ codoping for enhancement of the Ho3+:5I6 →5I7 mid-IR emissions were investigated in the LiLuF4 crystal for the first time. It was found that Pr3+ greatly increased Ho3+ 2.9 μm emission by depopulating the Ho3+:5I7 level while having little inf...

A new coprecipitation methodology with lutetium hydroxide for preconcentration of heavy metal ions in herbal plant samples.

J. AOAC Int. 97(4) , 1189-94, (2014)

A new coprecipitation methodology that used lutetium hydroxide as a precipitant for Cu(II), Pb(II), Mn(II), Co(II), Cd(II), Fe(III), and Ni(II) ions in herbal plant and water samples for analysis by atomic absorption spectrometry has been investigated. The pa...

Preclinical Evaluation and Quantification of 18F-FPEB as a Radioligand for PET Imaging of the Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5.

J. Nucl. Med. 56 , 1954-9, (2015)

The metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) is a high-interest target for PET imaging because it plays a role in several pathologies, including addiction, schizophrenia, and fragile X syndrome.We studied the pharmacokinetics of (18)F-FPEB (3-(18)F-fluoro-5...

Near-infrared to visible upconversion in Tm3+ and Yb3+ codoped Lu2O3 nanocrystals synthesized by hydrothermal method.

J. Nanosci. Nanotechnol. 14(6) , 4313-9, (2014)

Lutetium oxide nanocrystals codoped with Tm3+ and Yb3+ have been successfully synthesized via adjusting the pH values of the precursor solution in a hydrothermal method followed by a subsequent calcination process. The samples were systematically characterize...

Affinity Capillary Electrophoresis for Selective Control of Electrophoretic Mobility of Sialic Acid Using Lanthanide-Hexadentate Macrocyclic Polyazacarboxylate Complexes.

Anal. Sci. 31 , 1143-9, (2015)

It is difficult to control the electrophoretic mobility in order to obtain high resolution among saccharides in complex samples. We report herein on a new affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE) method for an anionic monosaccharide, N-acetylneuraminic acid (...

Hydrothermal synthesis of NaLuF4:153Sm,Yb,Tm nanoparticles and their application in dual-modality upconversion luminescence and SPECT bioimaging.

Biomaterials 34(3) , 774-83, (2013)

Upconversion luminescence (UCL) properties and radioactivity have been integrated into NaLuF(4):(153)Sm,Yb,Tm nanoparticles by a facile one-step hydrothermal method, making these nanoparticles potential candidates for UCL and single-photon emission computed t...

Synthesis and application of a novel cysteine-based DTPA-NCS for targeted radioimmunotherapy.

Nucl. Med. Biol. 40(3) , 424-9, (2013)

For the development of safe and effective protein-based radiolabeled complexes such as radioimmunotherapy (RIT), the selection of the radionuclides and the chelating agents used for the radiolabeling of tumor-targeting molecules is a critical factor. We aim t...

Effectiveness of quenchers to reduce radiolysis of (111)In- or (177)Lu-labelled methionine-containing regulatory peptides. Maintaining radiochemical purity as measured by HPLC.

Curr. Top. Med. Chem 12(23) , 2677-85, (2012)

An overview how to measure and to quantify radiolysis by the addition of quenchers and to maintain Radio-Chemical Purity (RCP) of vulnerable methionine-containing regulatory peptides is presented. High RCP was only achieved with a combination of quenchers. Ho...

Structural and magnetic properties of Ba2LuMoO6: a valence bond glass.

J. Phys. Condens. Matter 25(8) , 082202, (2013)

We report here the synthesis of the site ordered double perovskite Ba(2)LuMoO(6). Rietveld refinement of room temperature powder x-ray diffraction measurements indicates that it crystallizes in the cubic space group Fm3m, with a = 8.3265(1) Å. Powder neutron ...
