  ABSTRACT: It has been demonstrated that [D-Ala2, D-Leu5] enkephalin (DADLE), a delta opioid agonist, protected neuron from hypoxic neuronal injury by activating the delta opioid receptor (DOR). However, whether DADLE can prevent neuronal injury induced by severe hypoxia like oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) is not clear. Here, we investigated whether DADLE has a protective effect against neuronal injury induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation. Neuron viability was measured by MTT and neuron injury was assessed by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release. Protein expression was examined by Western blot. The results showed that DADLE protected the cortical neuron in a dose-dependent way from OGD injury. And this neuroprotective effect could be completely blocked by delta 2 opioid antagonist Naltrindole. DADLE increased phosphorylation of ERK and prevented OGD-induced p38 phosphorylation. Neither DADLE nor Naltrindole had any appreciable effect on phosphorylation of JNK. One of the protective mechanisms of DADLE on OGD neurons may be due to the dynamic balance between the activation of ERK and the p38.

  ABSTRACT: Two cases of primary prostatic synovial sarcoma presenting as a prostatic mass are presented in patients aged 44 and 46 years. Histologically, both tumors were mainly composed of uniform spindle cells forming interlacing fascicles. Clusters of immature epithelioid cells were also observed among the spindle cells in case 1. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells of both cases were strongly positive for vimentin, bcl-2, CD99, and E-cadherin, as well as focally positive for cytokeratin. However, they were negative for prostate-specific antigen, S-100 protein, CD34, CD117, muscle-specific actin, desmin, and calretinin. The presence of an SYT-SSX gene fusion resulting from t(X;18) was demonstrated from paraffin blocks by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction in both cases. To the authors' knowledge, these represent the fifth and sixth reported cases of prostatic synovial sarcoma. Accurate diagnosis depends on morphologic and immunohistochemical examination and proper molecular analysis.
