Propositions
1.Neurotrophins are not a biomarker for one specific brain disease, however, these proteins shed some light on the pathophysiology of all brain diseases (Chapter 2);
2.The consequences sociability have on health quality cannot be underestimated, as it can be an important ally – or a dangerous foe – in the fight against diseases (Chapter 3);
3.Although TSPO activation plays a major role in PET imaging of neuroinflammation, it is but a part of the whole process of inflammation (Chapter 4);
4.Understanding how neuroinflammation is associated with depressive-like behavior might allow us another way to treat depression (Chapter 5);
5.Future studies using resident/intruder paradigms need to carefully address its protocol, as either resident, intruder, and paradigm, play an equal role in the paradigm (Chapter 6);
6.PET imaging of brain inflammation needs severely the development of new radiotracers that can be used in research and further implemented in clinical settings (Chapter 5);
