Imaging of translocator protein upregulation is selective for pro‐inflammatory polarized astrocytes and microglia

<p>Translocator protein (TSPO) expression is increased in activated glia, and has been used as a marker of neuroinflammation in PET imaging. However, the extent to which TSPO upregulation reflects a pro‐ or anti‐inflammatory phenotype remains unclear. Our aim was to determine whether TSPO upre...
