Objective To observe the expression of discs large hom olog 4 (DLG4) protein in hippocam-pus, am ygdala and frontal cortex of rats and evaluate postsynaptic density in heroin dependence. Meth-ods The rat heroin dependent m odel was established by increasing intraperitoneal injection of heroin. DLG4 proteins in hippocam pus, am ygdala and frontal cortex of heroin dependent 9, 18, 36 days rats w ere detected with im munohistochem ical staining and com pared with that in the control group. Results DLG4 proteins in hippocam pus, am ygdala and frontal cortex w ere gradually reduced with extension of heroin dependent tim e. Conclusion Heroin dependence can affect postsynaptic density of hippocam pus, am ygdala and frontal cortex. The changes becom e m ore apparent with extension of heroin dependence tim e.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of MRI-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy in domestic clinical prac tice.Methods A total of 45 patients with 45 suspicious breast lesions were examined with MRI-guided vacuum assisted bi opsy.The complications were observed.And the followed-up was performed.Results In 45 suspected breast lesions,43 lesions (43/45,95.56％) were successfully sampled under MRI-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy and the pathologic diagnosis was obtained.For another 2 lesions (2/45,4.44％),the pathology diagnosis were not obtained.The time to perform MRI-guided biopsy was (45.87±8.41)min for one lesion.The 5 malignant lesions (5/45,11.11％) confirmed by biopsy pathology were consistent with postoperative pathological results.For the 38 benign lesions (38/45,84.44％) confirmed by biopsy pathology,there was no malignant performance found in MRI follow-up for 6 months.Because of successful MR imaging-guided core biopsy findings,the clinic treatments were changed in 14 patients (14/45,31.11％).Five cases (5/45,11.11％) with malignant tumors were diagnosed early.The surgical biopsy was avoided in 9 benign cases (9/45,20.00 ％) who suspected as malignant.In all 45 patients,no complications occurred,such as hematoma and infection.Con clusion MRI-Guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy is sufficient and safe for obtaining histologic proof of lesions,and plays an important role in guiding clinic treatment of some lesions visible only by MRI.

Post-stroke insomnia is very common in clinic. Most clinicians regard post-stroke insomnia as common insomnia without considering the particularity of stroke patients. There are many kinds of hypnotics in clinic, and the mechanism and side effects of various hypnotics are different; however, the choice of drugs for post-stroke insomnia is entirely based on experience, and the curative effect is different. This review describes the drug selection of post-stroke insomnia.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Enolase inhibition (ENOblock) on autophagy- related protein expression and motor function promotion after spinal cord injury in rats.Methods:A total of 160 female SD rats were divided into sham-operation group, 3-methyladenine (3-MA) autophagy inhibitor treatment group (3-MA group), spinal cord injury group and ENOblock treatment group (ENOblock group) according to the random number table, with 40 rats per group. Back laminectomy without injury to the spinal cord was performed in sham-operation group. Spinal cord injury at T 8 was induced by using a modified Allen weight-drop apparatus to establish a spinal cord injury model in the rest three groups. 3-MA and ENOblock groups were injected 3-MA (2.5 mg/kg) and ENOblock (100 μg/kg) into the caudal vein immediately after injury, respectively. Sham-operation and spinal cord injury groups were injected same dose of isotonic sodium chloride solution into the caudal vein. At 1, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days after injury, BBB score was used to evaluate lower limb motor function. At day 3 after injury, the ratio of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3)-II to LC3-I and protein expressions of autophagy effector protein (Beclin-1) and polyubiq-uitinbinding protein (p62) were detected by Western blotting. At day 7 after injury, LC3-Ⅱ and Beclin-1 positive cells in the injured area of the spinal cord were determined by immunofluorescence staining. At day 3 after injury, the mRNA expressions of Beclin-1 and Enolase in the injured area of the spinal cord were detected by RT-PCR. Results:At 1, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days after injury, BBB score was lowered in 3-MA group [(1.4±1.1)points, (2.4±0.9)points, (3.8±1.8)points, (7.6±1.1)points, (9.0±2.1)points], spinal cord injury group [(0.8±0.5)points, (1.8±0.9)points, (3.6±0.9)points, (6.2±1.3)points, (8.0±0.7)points] and ENOblock group [(2.0±0.9)points, (2.2±0.8)points, (4.8±1.1)points, (10.6±1.5)points, (13.2±0.8)points] compared to sham-operation group [(21.0±0.0)points at all time points] (all P<0.05). Moreover, the score in ENOblock group was significantly higher than that in spinal cord injury group at 14, 21 days after injury, and the score in 3-MA group was significantly higher than that in spinal cord injury group at day 21 after injury (all P<0.05). At day 3 after injury, Western blotting showed that the ratio of LC3-II to LC3-I and protein expressions of Beclin-1 and p62 were 0.46±0.10, 0.41±0.03, 0.81±0.03 in sham-operation group, 0.66±0.06, 0.69±0.02, 0.59±0.05 in 3-MA group, 0.85±0.06, 1.07±0.03, 0.41±0.02 in spinal cord injury group and 0.68±0.06, 0.66±0.08, 0.55±0.02 in ENOblock group. By comparison, spinal cord injury group showed significantly higher ratio of LC3-II to LC3-I and protein expression of Beclin-1 and significantly lower protein expression of p62 than sham-operation group (all P<0.05); 3-MA and ENOblock groups showed significantly lower ratio of LC3-II to LC3-I and protein expression of Beclin-1 and significantly higher protein expression of p62 than spinal cord injury group (all P<0.05); there was no significant difference in the ratio of LC3-II to LC3-I and protein expressions of Beclin-1 and p62 between 3-MA and ENOblock groups (all P>0.05). At day 7 after injury, immunofluorescence staining showed that LC3-II and Beclin-1 positive cells in 3-MA and ENOblock groups were less than those in spinal cord injury group. At day 3 after injury, RT-PCR showed that mRNA expressions of Beclin-1 and Enolase in spinal cord injury group (1.08±0.16, 0.98±0.17) were higher than those in sham-operation group (0.25±0.06, 0.29±0.03). Moreover, mRNA expressions of Beclin-1 and Enolase in 3-MA group (0.77±0.11, 0.72±0.04) and ENOblock group (0.81±0.10, 0.64±0.09) were lower than those in spinal cord injury group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in mRNA expressions of Beclin-1 and Enolase between 3-MA and ENOblock groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Autophagy activity is significantly up-regulated after spinal cord injury in rats. ENOblock can inhibit autophagy and promote motor function recovery in rats by regulating the expression of autophagy-related proteins.
