Glial activation colocalizes with structural abnormalities in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
OBJECTIVE In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to evaluate brain structural abnormalities in relation to glial activation in the same cohort of participants. METHODS Ten individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and 10 matched healthy controls underwent brain imaging using integrated MR/PET and the radioligand [11C]-PBR28. Diagnosis history and clinical assessments including Upp...
متن کاملNeuroinflammation in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Measured Using Positron Emission Tomographic Imaging of Translocator Protein.
IMPORTANCE Neuroinflammation may play a role in epilepsy. Translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO), a biomarker of neuroinflammation, is overexpressed on activated microglia and reactive astrocytes. A preliminary positron emission tomographic (PET) imaging study using carbon 11 ([11C])-labeled PBR28 in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) found increased TSPO ipsilateral to seizure foci. Full q...
متن کاملPseudoreference Regions for Glial Imaging with 11C-PBR28: Investigation in 2 Clinical Cohorts.
The translocator protein (TSPO) is a commonly used imaging target to investigate neuroinflammation. Although TSPO imaging demonstrates great promise, its signal exhibits substantial interindividual variability, which needs to be accounted for to uncover group effects that are truly reflective of neuroimmune activation. Recent evidence suggests that relative metrics computed using pseudoreferenc...
متن کاملImaging of glia activation in people with primary lateral sclerosis
Background Glia activation is thought to contribute to neuronal damage in several neurodegenerative diseases based on preclinical and human post-mortem studies, but its role in primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is unknown. Objectives To localize and measure glia activation in people with PLS compared to healthy controls (HC). Methods Ten participants with PLS and ten age-matched HCs underwent...
متن کاملMicroglial depletion and activation: A [11C]PBR28 PET study in nonhuman primates
BACKGROUND The 18-kDa translocator protein (TSPO) is an important target for assessing neuroimmune function in brain with positron-emission tomography (PET) imaging. The goal of this work was to assess two [11C]PBR28 imaging paradigms for measuring dynamic microglia changes in Macaca mulatta. METHODS Dynamic [11C]PBR28 PET imaging data with arterial blood sampling were acquired to quantify TS...
