  • The study investigates the prevalence of apicomplexan parasites, specifically Toxoplasma gondii, Neospora caninum, and Sacrocystis spp., in Iranian domestic rock pigeons through various examinations.
  • Out of 100 pigeons sampled, a seroprevalence of 45% for T. gondii and 35% for N. caninum was found, along with detected DNA of T. gondii in 28 birds and Sacrocystis spp. in one.
  • Histopathological analysis revealed tissue damage like myocarditis and myositis, highlighting a risk for both pigeons and humans due to potential infection, prompting recommendations for control strategies.

Purpose: Imaging of glioblastoma multiform (GBM) tumor using 68 -Galium-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraaceticacid-Ser-Ser-Ser-Leu-Thr-Val-Ser-Pro-Trp-Tyr ( 68 Ga-DOTA-(Ser)3-LTVSPWY) as a PET radiotracer for HER2 receptor due to fact that this receptor plays a pivotal role in the tumorigenesis and tumor progression in a wide range of cancer.

Methods: 68 Ga-DOTA-(Ser) 3 -LTVSPWY was produced with high radiochemical purity. The affinity and specificity of this radiotracer toward HER2 receptor on the surface of glioma glioblastoma (U-87 MG) cell line were evaluated.
