Following EcoHIV infection, microglia were the major cell type expressing HIV-1 mRNA, results that are consistent with observations in the HIV-1 Tg rat. Within eight weeks of infection, EcoHIV rats exhibited neurocognitive impairments and synaptic dysfunction, which may result from activation of the NogoA-NgR3/PirB-RhoA signaling pathway and/or neuroinflammation. Collectively, these studies enhance our understanding of HIV-1 viral reservoirs in the brain and offer a novel biological system to model HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders and associated comorbidities (i.e., drug abuse) in rats.Plant matrices are widely recognized as valuable sources of several health promoting compounds [...].In Western countries, one of the main barriers to entomophagy is repulsion toward insects. Few studies have investigated the factors that influence attitudes toward entomophagy. Therefore, we conducted a cross-sectional study involving a sample of 248 university students, focusing on disgust and other potential attributes that can influence insect consumption, including health literacy. We used a 17-item self-administered questionnaire. Consistent with the literature, two items were chosen as outcome variables to evaluate the predictors of the propensity to consume insects "Have you ever eaten insects or insect-based products?" and "How disgusting do you find eating insects?" The data analysis shows that having already eaten insects is inversely associated with the level of disgust (OR 0.1, p 0.01). Additionally, having some knowledge and information about entomophagy is inversely associated with a higher level of disgust (OR 0.44, p = 0.03 and OR 0.25, p = 0.03, respectively), while being female is positively associated with disgust (OR 3.26, p less then 0.01). Our results suggest the potential role of health literacy, in addition to other factors, i
