Do statins of different brain penetrability differentially affect CSF PLTP activity?
Our data indicate that statins differentially affect two key lipid transfer proteins in the brain, and that effect on PLTP activity depends on statin BBB penetrability.
For ferucarbotran-enhanced MRI, lesion SDNR was highest on images obtained using a TE of 13.5 milliseconds, but the sensitivity and lesion conspicuity were comparable at TEs of 9 and 18 milliseconds. The SDNR of liver lesions varied according to the lesion's potential capability of taking up SPIO agents.
