In vivo measurements of T1 relaxation times in mouse brain associated with different modes of systemic administration of manganese chloride

Abstract

Systemic administration of MnCl2 by IV and IP routes induced similar time-course of T1 changes in different regions of the mouse brain. Acute effects of MnCl2 administration were mainly influenced by either the presence or absence of BBB. SC injection also provided significant T1 change at subacute stage after MnCl2 administration.
