Article Synopsis
- The human 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) is key for measuring glial activation in both healthy and disease states, particularly in neurodegenerative disorders like MS, PD, and ALS.
- Advances in radiotracers have helped researchers explore the relationship between TSPO expression and the severity of these diseases.
- This review discusses the complexities of TSPO imaging research, highlighting its evolution over 30 years and addressing challenges, achievements, and future directions, including insights from psychiatric disorders.
