- Pulmonary tuberculosis emerged as the most frequent opportunistic infection, alongside data revealing that many patients had low BMI and varying CD4 counts, underlining the need for effective management according to National AIDS Control Organization (NACO) guidelines.
We found a low-molecular-mass, fluorescent dye, Calcein blue am ester (CB), that labels terminal Schwann cells at neuromuscular junctions in vivo without damaging them. This dye was used to follow terminal Schwann cells at neuromuscular junctions in the mouse sternomastoid muscle over periods of days to months. Terminal Schwann cell bodies and processes were stable in their spatial distribution over these intervals, with processes that in most junctions were precisely aligned with motor nerve terminal branches.
