The high affinity peripheral benzodiazepine receptor ligand DAA1106 binds to activated and infected brain macrophages in areas of synaptic degeneration: Implications for PET imaging of neuroinflammation in lentiviral encephalitis

HIV encephalitis equi-jec 7 (HIVE) is characterized by neurodegeneration mediated by toxins derived from infected and activated brain macrophages.Since the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor (PBR) is abundant on brain macrophages, we hypothesized that [3H]DAA1106, a new PBR ligand, can label infected and activated brain macrophages in HIVE.Using ce

Fatal Tuberculosis in a Free-Ranging African Elephant and One Health Implications of Human Pathogens in Wildlife

Tuberculosis (TB) in humans is a global public health concern and the discovery of animal cases of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection and disease, especially in multi-host settings, also has significant implications for public health, veterinary disease control, and conservation endeavors.This paper describes a fatal case of Mtb disease in
