Journal ArticleDOI

Linking GABA and glutamate levels to cognitive skill acquisition during development

Kathrin Cohen Kadosh, +4 more
- 09 Sep 2015 - 
TL;DR: It is found that glutamate/GABA levels and gray matter volume are dissociated at the different maturational stages, suggesting that increased excitation during development is linked to neuroplasticity and the acquisition of new cognitive skills.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectroscopy markers of suicidal risk and mental pain in depressed patients.

Fabrice Jollant, +3 more
- 06 Feb 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that markers of impaired neuronal and glial functioning in right dorsal prefrontal cortex underlie cardinal symptoms of the suicidal crisis and targeting this region may be relevant for the short‐term suicidal prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Validation of in vivo MRS measures of metabolite concentrations in the human brain.

Elvisha Dhamala, +8 more
- 01 Mar 2019 - 
TL;DR: Assessment of the validity of MRS measures of human brain metabolite concentrations by comparing multiple M RS measures acquired using different MRS acquisition sequences.

Pathological glutamatergic neurotransmission in Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome

Ahmad S. Kanaan, +9 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that patients with Gilles de la Tourette syndrome exhibit an abnormality in the flux of metabolites in the GABA-Glu-Gln cycle, thus implying perturbations in astrocytic-neuronal coupling systems that maintain the subtle balance between excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission within subcortical nuclei.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multi-vendor standardized sequence for edited magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Muhammad G. Saleh, +18 more
- 01 Apr 2019 - 
TL;DR: An effort to develop a new universal MEGA‐PRESS sequence with HERMES functionality for the major MR vendor platforms with standardized RF pulse shapes, durations, amplitudes and timings is described.
