摘要: Objective The transition of microglia from the normal resting state to activated is associated with an increased expression peripheral benzodiazepine receptors (PBR). The extent PBR dependent on level microglial activation. A ligand, [11C]PK11195, has been used for imaging activation in vivo. We evaluated whether [11C]PK11195 PET can indicate differences between no treatment and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) a rat artificial injury model brain inflammation.
