Journal ArticleDOI
Clusters of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles encapsulated in a hydrogel: a particle architecture generating a synergistic enhancement of the T2 relaxation.
Chantal Paquet,Hendrick W. de Haan,Donald M. Leek,Hung-Yu Lin,Bo Xiang,Ganghong Tian,Ganghong Tian,Arnold J. Kell,Benoit Simard +8 more
TL;DR: This demonstration of a surface-active particle structure opens new possibilities in using similar structures for nanoparticle-based diagnostics using magnetic resonance imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adipose-derived stem cells are an effective cell candidate for treatment of heart failure: an MR imaging study of rat hearts
Wang Lei,Jixian Deng,Weichen Tian,Bo Xiang,Tonghua Yang,Gang Li,Jian Wang,Marco L.H. Gruwel,Tarek Kashour,John Rendell,M. Glogowski,Boguslaw Tomanek,Darren H. Freed,Roxanne Deslauriers,Rakesh C. Arora,Ganghong Tian +15 more
TL;DR: Results of this study suggest that ASCs were able to improve cardiac function of infarcted rat hearts and paracrine effect may be the mechanism underlying the improved cardiac function and increased capillary density.
Journal ArticleDOI
The cell labeling efficacy, cytotoxicity and relaxivity of copper-activated MRI/PET imaging contrast agents
TL;DR: These iron oxide nanoparticles can also be explored as the smart magnetic resonance (MR) sensor for the detection of micromolar changes in copper concentration for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Menkes and Wilson's diseases, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and prion diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
A cardioprotective preservation strategy employing ex vivo heart perfusion facilitates successful transplant of donor hearts after cardiocirculatory death
Christopher W. White,Ayyaz Ali,Devin Hasanally,Bo Xiang,Yun Li,P. Mundt,Matthew Lytwyn,S. Colah,Julianne Klein,Amir Ravandi,Rakesh C. Arora,T.W. Lee,Larry V. Hryshko,Stephen R. Large,Ganghong Tian,Darren H. Freed +15 more
TL;DR: In this experimental model of DCD, an EVHP strategy using initial reperfusion with a tepid adenosine-lidocaine cardioplegia and continuous myocardial perfusion minimizes myocardIAL injury and improves short-term post-transplant function compared with the current EVHP strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
A whole blood-based perfusate provides superior preservation of myocardial function during ex vivo heart perfusion
Christopher W. White,Devin Hasanally,P. Mundt,Yun Li,Bo Xiang,Julianne Klein,Alison L. Müller,E. Ambrose,Amir Ravandi,Rakesh C. Arora,T.W. Lee,Larry V. Hryshko,Stephen R. Large,Ganghong Tian,Darren H. Freed +14 more
TL;DR: A whole blood-based perfusate (RBC+Plasma) minimizes injury and provides superior preservation of myocardial function during EVHP, and the beneficial effect of plasma on the preservation of this function requires further investigation.
