Synaptic Structure and Function in the Mouse Somatosensory Cortex during Chronic Pain: In Vivo Two-Photon Imaging by Sun Kwang Kim, Kei Eto, Junichi Nabekura

“…Recent advances in two-photon microscopy and fluorescence labeling techniques have enabled us to directly see the structural and functional changes in neurons and glia, and even at synapses, in the brain of living animals. Long-term in vivo two-photon imaging studies have shown that some postsynaptic dendritic spines in the adult cortex are rapidly eliminated or newly generated, in response to altered sensory input or synaptic activity, resulting in experience/activity-dependent rewiring of neuronal circuits. …”

L’anticommunisme de la droite gouvernementale dans la vie politique française de 1968 à 1984 by Laurent Jalabert

“…The period from the events of May 1968 to the election of François Mitterrand shows that anti-communism in France is experiencing an undeniable revival in the political circles of the parliamentary right. Animated by old fantasies about the "fear of the red" in the most conservative circles in the 1960s, it found in part of the Gaullist government of the late 1960s and around the events of 1968, a fierce revival, an argument that carried weight in the political struggle that was confirmed by the legislative elections of June 1968. …”

Comparison of Epirubicin-Iodized Oil Suspension and Emulsion for Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization in VX2 Tumor by Tatsuo Ueda, Satoru Murata, Takahiko Mine, Shiro Onozawa, Munehiko Onda, Zenya Naito, Yasuo Amano, Shinichiro Kumita

“…To compare the antitumor efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) by epirubicin suspension (epirubicin suspension: epirubicin-iodized oil mixture without solution) to that by epirubicin emulsion (epirubicin emulsion: epirubicin-iodized oil mixture with solution), the efficacy of treatment by administration of either an epirubicin suspension or emulsion was examined in an animal model. Changes in plasma epirubicin concentration were compared over 24 h immediately after treatment, and enhanced ultrasonographic and histopathological analysis subsequently conducted 7 days after treatment to determine the growth ratio and proportion of viable tumor cells. …”
