Brain Activation in Response to Visceral Stimulation in Rats with Amygdala Implants of Corticosterone: An fMRI Study (2010)

Johnson, Anthony C., Myers, Brent, Lazovic, Jelena, Towner, Rheal, Greenwood-Van Meerveld, Beverley

Background: Although visceral pain of gastrointestinal (GI) origin is the major complaint in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) it remains poorly understood. Brain imaging studies suggest a...

Mouse model of encephalopathy and novel treatment strategies with substrate competition in glutaric aciduria type I (2010)

Zinnanti, William J., Lazovic, Jelena

Glutaric aciduria type I (GA-1) results from an inherited defect in a common step of lysine, hydroxylysine and tryptophan metabolism. This defect is associated with an age-dependent susceptibility to...

Mechanism of age-dependent susceptibility and novel treatment strategy in glutaric acidemia type I (2007)

Zinnanti, William J., Lazovic, Jelena, Housman, Cathy, LaNoue, Kathryn, O'Callaghan, James P., Simpson, Ian, ...

Glutaric acidemia type I (GA-I) is an inherited disorder of lysine and tryptophan metabolism presenting with striatal lesions anatomically and symptomatically similar to Huntington disease. Affected...

Multimodal imaging of striatal degeneration in Amish patients with glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (2007)

Strauss, Kevin A., Lazovic, Jelena, Wintermark, Max, Morton, D. Holmes

Despite early diagnosis, one-third of Amish infants with glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (GA1) develop striatal lesions that leave them permanently disabled. To better understand mechanisms of...

Applications of Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Study Brain Pathology and Function (2006)

Lazovic, Jelena

Magnetic resonance imaging utilizes magnetic fields to non-invasively manipulate atomic nuclei to allow creation of images from regions within a body otherwise obscured from sight. Here we use the...

A diet-induced mouse model for glutaric aciduria type I (2006)

Zinnanti, William J., Lazovic, Jelena, Wolpert, Ellen B., Antonetti, David A., Smith, Michael B., Connor, James R., ...

In the autosomal recessive human disease, glutaric aciduria type I (GA-1), glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase (GCDH) deficiency disrupts the mitochondrial catabolism of lysine and tryptophan. Affected...
