In the ischemic region, AQP4-KO mice showed lower ADCs compared to WT mice, whereas higher ADCs were observed in the contralateral region. In addition, we compared estimates of cell membrane water exchange time obtained by fitting a two-compartment exchange model to the DWI signal. The exchange-time was approximately 2.5 times longer for the AQP4-KO mice than for the WT mice. These results suggest that MbMTd DWI may be useful for in vivo research and clinical diagnosis of AQP4-related diseases., ISMRM 2021}, title = {Exploring the effect of aquaporin-4 suppression on cell membrane water exchange in a mouse model of brain ischemia using diffusion-weighted MRI}, year = {2021} }
