T2, T and TRAFF4 detect early regenerative changes in mouse ischemic skeletal muscle

Abstract: The identification of areas with regenerative potential in ischemic tissues would allow the targeting of treatments supporting tissue recovery. The regeneration process involves the activation of several cellular and molecular responses which could be detected using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, to date, magnetic resonance (MR) relaxation parameters have received little attention in the diagnosis and follow-up of limb ischemia. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of different… Show more

“…At day 14, both relaxation and diffusion parameters in the ligated limb were close to the values typical for the intact leg, although some indexes were still significantly changed with respect to the other side. The published results indicate that complete normalization of the diffusion and relaxation parameters should be expected within 3‐4 weeks after artery ligation . However, a direct comparison of our results with the reported data is difficult due to the variability in mice strains, mice age and diversity of surgical procedures of artery ligation.…”

“…This decay reflects intramuscular water content and its organization. Although it is possible to observe four exponential nature of this decay in the normal muscle using specialized techniques, global T2 changes determined from the mono‐exponential fitting of the MR signal acquired using standard multiecho sequences are usually reported …”
