TL;DR: It is illustrated that weaver mice have specific deficiencies in the dopamine system and might provide a way of examining the biochemical and behavioral effects of long term dopamine deficiency and a way to examine drugs to treat dopamine-deficient states in vivo.
Abstract: The dopamine system in weaver mutant mice (B6CBA-Aw-J/A background) was studied. Dopamine was 27% lower in the olfactory tubercle, 77% lower in the frontal cortex, and 75% lower in the striatum of 6-month-old weaver mice compared to control mice of the same age. Norepinephrine and serotonin were not lower in these brain areas. Tyrosine hydroxylase activity in the striatum was measured with a radiometric assay and was 70% lower in weaver mice. Examination of mice from 11 to 180 days of age revealed that the dopamine system failed to develop in weaver mice. Motor activity in individual animals was assessed using circular photocell activity cages with minimal illumination. Apomorphine and pergolide, direct dopamine agonists, increased activity more in weaver mice than in normal littermates. Amphetamine, which releases endogenous stores of dopamine, was less active in mutant mice. These findings provide suggestive evidence that postsynaptic dopamine receptors in weaver mutants might have become supersensitive as a result of lower levels of dopamine in motor areas of the brain. Anatomical evidence of dopamine system abnormalities was found in weaver mice by examination of serial sections cut from the midbrain of mutant and normal mice. The pars compacta of the substantia nigra in weaver mice appeared hypocellular when compared with the corresponding sections from controls. Fewer large neurons were seen in the affected animals. This study illustrates that weaver mice have specific deficiencies in the dopamine system. The weaver mouse might provide a way of examining the biochemical and behavioral effects of long term dopamine deficiency and a way to examine drugs to treat dopamine-deficient states in vivo.

TL;DR: Examination of the brains of newborn rats after exposure to hypoxia or CoCl2 afforded a 96% and 76% brain protection, respectively, compared with littermate control animals, suggesting that different molecular mechanisms may be involved in the induction of tolerance by Hypoxia and CoCl 2 in newborn brain.

TL;DR: Although the study was terminated early, preoperative gemcitabine plus cisplatin followed by radical surgery improved survival in patients with clinical stage IIB/IIIA NSCLC.
Abstract: Purpose This study aimed to determine whether three preoperative cycles of gemcitabine plus cisplatin followed by radical surgery provides a reduction in the risk of progression compared with surgery alone in patients with stages IB to IIIA non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients and Methods Patients with chemotherapy-naive NSCLC (stages IB, II, or IIIA) were randomly assigned to receive either three cycles of gemcitabine 1,250 mg/m 2 days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks plus cisplatin 75 mg/m 2 day 1 every 3 weeks followed by surgery, or surgery alone. Randomization was stratified by center and disease stage (IB/IIA v IIB/IIIA). The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). Results The study was prematurely closed after the random assignment of 270 patients: 129 to chemotherapy plus surgery and 141 to surgery alone. Median age was 61.8 years and 83.3% were male. Slightly more patients in the surgery alone arm had disease stage IB/IIA (55.3% v 48.8%). The chemotherapy response rate was 35.4%. The hazard ratios for PFS and overall survival were 0.70 (95% CI, 0.50 to 0.97; P .003) and 0.63 (95% CI, 0.43 to 0.92; P .02), respectively, both in favor of chemotherapy plus surgery. A statistically significant impact of preoperative chemotherapy on outcomes was observed in the stage IIB/IIIA subgroup (3-year PFS rate: 36.1% v 55.4%; P .002). The most common grade 3 or 4 chemotherapy-related adverse events were neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. No treatment-by-histology interaction effect was apparent. Conclusion Although the study was terminated early, preoperative gemcitabine plus cisplatin followed by radical surgery improved survival in patients with clinical stage IIB/IIIA NSCLC.

TL;DR: The results identify a central role for the presynaptic kainate receptor in the induction of mossy fiber LTP and suggest that the pathway by which kainates receptors facilitate glutamate release is utilized for the expression of mossY fiber LTB.
