Abstract
Pet obesity is still a major health issue, which is considered an epidemic by some researchers. Prevention is one of the cornerstones of veterinary care, emphasizing the importance of proactive measures. Human lifestyle was affected during the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in an increased overweight prevalence in the population. The prevalence of overweight and obesity in dogs during this period has been poorly explored. This study's objectives were to assess the percentage of the French dog population with overweight and obesity, compare the results with a study conducted before the COVID-19 pandemic, and investigate any potential changes in the risk factors. The study collected data through a survey completed by dog owners during their pets' vaccination visits at university veterinary hospitals of Maisons-Alfort (Paris) and Toulouse, in France, between 2020 and 2022. The veterinarian recorded the dog's weight and the body condition score using a 9-point scale. The study included a total of 309 dogs. Of these, 1.6 % were underweight, 63.1 % had an ideal body condition, and 35.3 % were overweight, including 2.3 % of all dogs classified as obese. During the pandemic, French dog diets shifted towards increased commercial food consumption and twice-daily feedings compared to a 2003 study. Factors positively associated with overweight were being female (OR = 3.55; 95 % CI: 1.65-8.01; P=0.002), being senior (OR=4.91; 95 % CI: 2.07-12.2; P<0.001) or geriatric (OR=5.81; 95 % CI: 2.04-17.0; P=0.001) and having an owner underestimating dog's body condition (OR=74.1; 95 % CI: 29.8-215; P<0.001). Recognizing the impact of owner perception enables early intervention strategies, such as educating owners during consultations and conducting teaching sessions at the clinic. This proactive approach could contribute to improved health outcomes and help prevent the onset of obesity-related issues in dogs. The new trends in dogs' diets may have global relevance due to the pandemic's widespread impact. Although no immediate impact on overweight is evident, ongoing research is crucial to understand the pandemic's long-term effects.

Abstract
Global warming is a major public health concern. Volatile anaesthetics are greenhouse gases that increase the carbon footprint of healthcare. Modelling studies indicate that total intravenous anaesthesia is less carbon intensive than volatile anaesthesia, with equivalent quality of care. In this observational study, we aimed to apply the findings of previous modelling studies to compare the carbon footprint per general anaesthetic of an exclusive TIVA strategy vs. a mixed TIVA-volatile strategy. This comparative retrospective study was conducted over 2 years in two French hospitals, one using total intravenous anaesthesia only and one using a mixed strategy including both intravenous and inhalation anaesthetic techniques. Based on pharmacy procurement records, the quantity of anaesthetic sedative drugs was converted to carbon dioxide equivalents. The primary outcome was the difference in carbon footprint of hypnotic drugs per intervention between the two strategies. From 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2022, 25,137 patients received general anaesthesia in the hospital using the total intravenous anaesthesia strategy and 22,020 in the hospital using the mixed strategy. The carbon dioxide equivalent footprint of hypnotic drugs per intervention in the hospital using the total intravenous anaesthesia strategy was 20 times lower than in the hospital using the mixed strategy (emissions of 2.42 kg vs. 48.85 kg carbon dioxide equivalent per intervention, respectively). The total intravenous anaesthesia strategy significantly reduces the carbon footprint of hypnotic drugs in general anaesthesia in adult patients compared with a mixed strategy. Further research is warranted to assess the risk-benefit ratio of the widespread adoption of total intravenous anaesthesia.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) We are an academic radiation oncology center and treat 1500-2000 patients annually. The majority of target volume definition and organ at risk (OAR) contouring is performed by radiation oncologists (RO) and is estimated to require 10-15 hours per week for each RO. Artificial intelligence (AI) solutions for contouring are a possible method of reducing the time required. Several packages are commercially available. The purpose of this exercise was to evaluate 4 packages to identify one which would meet our department's need. The primary objective was to calculate the potential time savings associated with each of the 4 packages. The second objective was to perform a qualitative evaluation and comparison. MATERIALS/METHODS Approval from the hospital's Research Ethics Committee was obtained. CT Simulation datasets for 15 patients were anonymized for use as test cases for AI contouring. This included 5 datasets from each of 3 sites - head and neck (H+N), breast/thorax, and prostate/pelvis. 4 potential vendors provided access to their product for automated contouring of OARs +/- target volumes of each of the 15 datasets. Analysis was as follows: 1. One RO used a stopwatch to assess the time taken for them to contour each of the OARs +/- targets on each dataset 2. The AI contours from each of the vendors for each of the datasets was reviewed. 3. The time taken to correct each auto-contoured organ to make it clinically useful was timed. These were summed to give a time for each vendor for each dataset. 4. The time saving was calculated by subtracting the result of step (3) from step (1) 5. For the purpose of qualitative assessment, 2 ROs reviewed each dataset and assigned an objective score of 1-5 to each auto-contoured organ (e.g., 5 = no, or almost no, edits required; clinically useful as is) 6. The scores for each organ in each of the 15 datasets were averaged to give a mean value for the software package. RESULTS Baseline contouring time was 32.8 minutes for H+N, 23.0 minutes for breast/thorax, and 64.8 minutes for prostate/pelvis. One package was removed from consideration after assessment of H+N only as it was deemed to be of insufficient standard to be of clinical use. The average time saving for each of the remaining 3 software packages ranged were 15.7, 17.9, and 12.8 minutes for H+N, 3.1, 13.1, and 11.0 minutes for breast/thorax, and 32.6, 35.2, and 36.2 minutes for prostate/pelvis. Percentage time savings ranged from 39-55% for H+N, 13-57% for breast/thorax, and 50-56% for prostate/pelvis. The overall qualitative assessments on a 5-point scale were 3.5, 4.0, and 3.6. CONCLUSION The AI contouring solutions were associated with meaningful savings in the time taken to contour. The introduction of one of these products into clinical practice within our department will permit ROs to focus more of their time on other clinical activities.

Abstract
Background Nowadays, more people are treating dogs as family members. This reflects their increased attention towards their nutrition, with renewed interest for non-conventional diets such as Biologically Appropriate Raw Food/ Bones and Raw Food in United States (BARF) or homemade. In previous studies, owners feeding their dog non-conventional diets reported lower levels of trust in veterinary advice. The aim of the study was to identify differences in lifestyle between owners feeding dogs non-conventional diets and those feeding conventional diets (i.e., dry/wet pet food) to give further insight for improving communication between veterinarians and owners. Results A total of 426 surveys were usable. Fifteen percent of the participants lived in the metropole of Paris and had more than one dog (mean 1.72 dogs). Thirty-eight percent of the survey respondents stated that their dogs were fed exclusively with non-conventional diets, while 55% declared using conventional diets alone (not considering treats). The study canine population was for the most part neutered (63%) and purebred (68%). Amongst owners feeding conventional diets exclusively, 47% determined how much food to feed by consulting the feeding guidelines on the packaging, and only 28% said that the amount of food was prescribed by their veterinarian or veterinary nurse. Out of the participants feeding non-conventional diets, 65% declared that the information for formulating the recipes was gathered on the internet or in non-veterinary books. When compared with owners feeding exclusively conventional diets, those feeding non-conventional diets were living more frequently outside the metropole of Paris, had fewer children (0.23 ± 0.57 vs 0.37 ± 0.78; p = 0.03) and had more frequently other animals. They also dewormed less often their pets, walked their dog more each day (91 vs 78%; p < 0.001) and without leash for more than 6 h per week (46 vs 31%; p = 0.003). Conclusions This survey described differences in the habits of owners feeding dogs non-conventional diets in comparison with those feeding conventional diets. Data suggest that owners using non-conventional diets may be more attentive to the ethological needs of their dog which could be a starting point for practitioners for achieving better client-veterinarian communication.

Abstract
The augmentorium is a cost-effective screened enclosure designed to receive fruits infested with insect pests, retain the pests inside but let their natural enemies escape to enhance biological control of pest populations. Screen selection is critical to ensure that an augmentorium is effective for a particular system. Here we tested five types of screens with a mini-augmentorium design and measured the escape of four insect species under laboratory conditions: the pests olive fruit fly Bactocera oleae (Rossi) (Diptera: Tephritidae) and Mediterranean fruit fly Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae), and the parasitoids Psyttalia lounsburyi (Silvestri) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) and Psyttalia ponerophaga (Silvestri) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). The sex ratio of insects that escaped the screens was compared to the sex ratio of insects that could not escape. Results showed that one screen type ('crystal mesh') was the best for the purpose of designing a functional augmentorium: it retained 90% of B. oleae adults and 100% of C. capitata adults while letting 72% of Psyttalia lounsburyi adults and 94% of P. ponerophaga adults escape. The other screen types tested were suboptimal, either because they let too many flies freely escape or because they retained too many parasitoids. Sex ratio was almost always similar for insects that managed to escape the screens and insects that were retained, except for P. ponerophaga and the screen type 'light mesh'. These results are promising for the development of a functional augmentorium against the olive fruit fly and further implementation against Mediterranean fruit fly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common co-morbidity that affects up to 44% of children with Down syndrome (DS). There is a need for reliable, good quality research on the use of methylphenidate within this population. The objective of this study is to report our experience regarding the management of ADHD in these children using methylphenidate. METHODS This study is a retrospective observation of 21 children with DS, followed at Jérôme Lejeune Institute between 2000 and 2018. The diagnosis of ADHD was made using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders criteria. Efficacy was measured as response or non-response on two main symptoms: attention/concentration and hyperactivity/impulsivity. Safety was evaluated by the presence or absence of side effects. RESULTS Sixteen out of the 21 children (76%) showed improvement with methylphenidate. The average age of treatment onset in responding children was 8 years and 10 months versus 6 years and 3 months in non-responders (P = 0.05). Average dose/weight was significantly different in responders and non-responders (0.82 vs. 0.54 mg/kg/day, respectively; P = 0.03). Twelve children out of 21 (57%) experienced side effects; only three experienced side effects severe enough to require treatment interruption. Most common side effects were loss of appetite and difficulties in falling asleep. CONCLUSION Methylphenidate was effective and safe in treating ADHD in 76% of cases in children with DS, with few serious side effects to report. Early diagnosis of ADHD is important to improve the quality of life, learning, inclusion and socialisation of children with DS.

Abstract
Development of genetic testing direct-to-consumer (DTC) for recreational purposes, although prohibited in France, is a real challenge to the current practice of gamete donation. Indeed, anonymity is a fundamental principle contributing to the ethics of donation. This principle is weakened due to the availability to the general public of these tests on the Internet. Several thousands of people are conceived by gamete donation worldwide, some of whom do not know how they were conceived. Gamete donors should be informed that their anonymity is no longer guaranteed, as they can be found by homologies of their DNA, or that of a parent or a child, potentially available in databases. Thus, adults conceived by gamete donation but not informed by their parents can discover their way of conception. Recipients of gamete donation should also be informed that their child's DNA will establish the biological discrepancy and they should be encouraged to disclose the conception to their child. Several countries now allow children conceived by donation to obtain donor's identity. In France, the Bioethics Law is currently being finalized and will now allow access to donor's identity for people conceived by gamete donation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy can improve outcomes for women with optimally cytoreduced epithelial ovarian cancer but toxicities are a concern. We conducted 2 phase 2 trials of an IV/IP regimen using carboplatin and paclitaxel without (Trial A) and with bevacizumab (Trial B). METHODS Both trials consisted of carboplatin AUC 6 day 1, and paclitaxel 60 mg/m2 on days 1,8, 15 of a 21-day cycle; in Trial B, patients received IV bevacizumab 15 mg/kg every cycle starting cycle 2. Chemotherapy was administered IV for cycle 1 and then IP for all subsequent cycles. Primary objectives included safety and tolerability, pathologic CR rate (Trial A), and the rate of completion of IP cycles of therapy (Trial B). Progression-free (PFS), overall survival (OS), and pharmacokinetic analysis were secondary endpoints. RESULTS 81 patients were treated on both trials (n = 40 and 41 in trials A and B, respectively). Median age for trials A and B was 59 (range, 36-76) and 55 (range, 19-69) years, respectively. 68% and 85% of patients, respectively for A and B, completed at least 4 cycles of treatment in both trials. Treatment with bevacizumab resulted in higher rates of grade 3 fatigue (37 versus 33%) and grade 3-4 diarrhea (22 versus 8%). Median PFS was 23.5 (95%CI 16.2-35.3) and 25 (95%CI 16.4-42.7) months, respectively; median OS was 68 (95%CI 49.5-NR) and 79.7 (95%CI 59.0-79.7) months, respectively for Trial A and B. CONCLUSIONS Weekly administered IP carboplatin and IP paclitaxel is tolerable and safe with similar activity with and without concommittant bevacizumab in these 2 trials.

Abstract
The observed increase in cancer led to a continuous rise in anticancer drug preparations in Hospital Centres. The quality and security of these preparations are essential to ensure the efficacy and to limit the risk of iatrogenic toxicity. Several methods have been described to secure the process of preparation (i.e. non-analytical methods for the control during the fabrication; analytical methods for the final product evaluation). These different methods have been presented in many studies, in particular in descriptive studies, but in practice, selecting a method is difficult and related to needs and hospital priorities. Therefore, we decided to conduct this present review focused on various existing methods allowing enhancement in security of anti-cancer drugs preparation process. A proactive hazard analysis method was applied, considering preparation and control steps, to discuss the choice of a method in terms of quality and security and to identify potential risks of failure. The results show that none method is perfect. Methods with the lowest criticality score are the robotization closely followed by Drugcam® in the case of re-labelling of all containers. According to these elements a University Hospital Centre could consider these risk indexesimplementing control methods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rapid advancements in biomedical research have accelerated the number of relevant electronic documents published online, ranging from scholarly articles to news, blogs, and user-generated social media content. Nevertheless, the vast amount of this information is poorly organized, making it difficult to navigate. Emerging technologies such as ontologies and knowledge bases (KBs) could help organize and track the information associated with biomedical research developments. A major challenge in the automatic construction of ontologies and KBs is the identification of words with its respective sense(s) from a free-text corpus. Word-sense induction (WSI) is a task to automatically induce the different senses of a target word in the different contexts. In the last two decades, there have been several efforts on WSI. However, few methods are effective in biomedicine and life sciences. METHODS We developed a framework for biomedical entity sense induction using a mixture of natural language processing, supervised, and unsupervised learning methods with promising results. It is composed of three main steps: (1) a polysemy detection method to determine if a biomedical entity has many possible meanings; (2) a clustering quality index-based approach to predict the number of senses for the biomedical entity; and (3) a method to induce the concept(s) (i.e., senses) of the biomedical entity in a given context. RESULTS To evaluate our framework, we used the well-known MSH WSD polysemic dataset that contains 203 annotated ambiguous biomedical entities, where each entity is linked to 2-5 concepts. Our polysemy detection method obtained an F-measure of 98%. Second, our approach for predicting the number of senses achieved an F-measure of 93%. Finally, we induced the concepts of the biomedical entities based on a clustering algorithm and then extracted the keywords of reach cluster to represent the concept. CONCLUSIONS We have developed a framework for biomedical entity sense induction with promising results. Our study results can benefit a number of downstream applications, for example, help to resolve concept ambiguities when building Semantic Web KBs from biomedical text.

Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests a complex interplay between the endocannabinoid system, omega-3 fatty acids and the immune system in the promotion of brain self-repair. However, it is unknown if all omega-3 fatty acids elicit similar effects on adult neurogenesis and if such effects are mediated or regulated by interactions with the endocannabinoid system. This study investigated the effects of DHA and EPA on neural stem cell (NSC) fate and the role of the endocannabinoid signalling pathways in these effects. EPA, but not DHA, significantly increased proliferation of NSCs compared to controls, an effect associated with enhanced levels of the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonylglycerol (2-AG) and p-p38 MAPK, effects attenuated by pre-treatment with CB1 (AM251) or CB2 (AM630) receptor antagonists. Furthermore, in NSCs derived from IL-1β deficient mice, EPA significantly decreased proliferation and p-p38 MAPK levels compared to controls, suggesting a key role for IL-1β signalling in the effects observed. Although DHA similarly increased 2-AG levels in wild-type NSCs, there was no concomitant increase in proliferation or p-p38 MAPK activity. In addition, in NSCs from IL-1β deficient mice, DHA significantly increased proliferation without effects on p-P38 MAPK, suggesting effects of DHA are mediated via alternative signalling pathways. These results provide crucial new insights into the divergent effects of EPA and DHA in regulating NSC proliferation and the pathways involved, and highlight the therapeutic potential of their interplay with endocannabinoid signalling in brain repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EUROCARE study collects and analyses survival data from population-based cancer registries (CRs) in Europe in order to provide data on between-country differences in survival and time trends in survival. METHODS This study analyses data on liver cancer, gallbladder and extrahepatic biliary tract cancers ("biliary tract cancers"), and pancreatic cancer diagnosed in 2000-2007 from 88 CRs in 29 countries. Relative survival (RS) was estimated overall, by region, sex, age and period of diagnosis using the complete approach. Time trends in 5-year RS over 1999-2007 were also analysed using the period approach. RESULTS The prognosis of the studied cancers was poor. Age-standardised 5-year RS was 12% for liver cancer, 17% for biliary tract cancers and 7% for pancreatic cancer. There were some between-country differences in survival. In general, RS was low in Eastern Europe and high in Central and Southern Europe. For all sites, 5-year RS was similar in men and women and decreased with advancing age. No substantial changes in survival were reported for pancreatic cancer over the period 1999-2007. On average, there was a crude increase in 5-year RS of 3 percentage points between the periods 1999-2001 and 2005-2007 for liver cancer and biliary tract cancers. CONCLUSIONS The major changes in imaging techniques over the study period for the diagnosis of the three studied cancers did not result in an improvement in the prognosis of these cancers. In the near future, new innovative treatments might be the best way to improve the prognosis in these cancers.

Abstract
Pathomimia is defined as a dummy pathology self-induced deliberately and is neither associated with mental confusion nor disturbance of consciousness. This article reports a case of pathomimia in plastic surgery. One of our patients had intentionally injected physiological saline solution into her breast implants in order to increase their volume. Implants removal was necessary because of severe local inflammatory signs. Psychiatric assessment revealed body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) developed on an hysterical personality, which explained the self-induced injuries. This nosologic entity must be promptly identified because it's diagnosis remains problematic and a multidisciplinary medical management is essential.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The nuclear hormone receptor, PPARα, and its endogenous ligands, are involved in pain modulation. PPARα is expressed in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), a key brain region involved in both the cognitive-affective component of pain and in descending modulation of pain. However, the role of PPARα in the mPFC in pain responding has not been investigated. Here, we investigated the effects of pharmacological modulation of PPARα in the rat mPFC on formalin-evoked nociceptive behaviour and the impact of formalin-induced nociception on components of PPARα signalling in the mPFC. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH The effects of intra-mPFC microinjection of a PPARα agonist (GW7647) or a PPARα antagonist (GW6471) on formalin-evoked nociceptive behaviour in rats were studied. Quantitative real-time PCR and LC-MS/MS were used to study the effects of intraplantar injection of formalin on PPARα mRNA expression and levels of endogenous ligands, respectively, in the mPFC. KEY RESULTS Intra-mPFC administration of GW6471, but not GW7647, resulted in delayed onset of the early second phase of formalin-evoked nociceptive behaviour. Furthermore, formalin-evoked nociceptive behaviour was associated with significant reductions in mPFC levels of endogenous PPARα ligands (N-palmitoylethanolamide and N-oleoylethanolamide) and a 70% reduction in PPARα mRNA but not protein expression. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS These data suggest that endogenous ligands may act at PPARα in the mPFC to play a facilitatory/permissive role in second phase formalin-evoked nociceptive behaviour in rats.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE JZL184 is a selective inhibitor of monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL), the enzyme that preferentially catabolizes the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG). Here, we have studied the effects of JZL184 on inflammatory cytokines in the brain and plasma following an acute immune challenge and the underlying receptor and molecular mechanisms involved. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH JZL184 and/or the CB₁ receptor antagonist, AM251 or the CB₂ receptor antagonist, AM630 were administered to rats 30 min before lipopolysaccharide (LPS). 2 h later cytokine expression and levels, MAGL activity, 2-AG, arachidonic acid and prostaglandin levels were measured in the frontal cortex, plasma and spleen. KEY RESULTS JZL184 attenuated LPS-induced increases in IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and IL-10 but not the expression of the inhibitor of NFkB (IκBα) in rat frontal cortex. AM251 attenuated JZL184-induced decreases in frontal cortical IL-1β expression. Although arachidonic acid levels in the frontal cortex were reduced in JZL184-treated rats, MAGL activity, 2-AG, PGE₂ and PGD₂ were unchanged. In comparison, MAGL activity was inhibited and 2-AG levels enhanced in the spleen following JZL184. In plasma, LPS-induced increases in TNF-α and IL-10 levels were attenuated by JZL184, an effect partially blocked by AM251. In addition, AM630 blocked LPS-induced increases in plasma IL-1β in the presence, but not absence, of JZL184. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Inhibition of peripheral MAGL in rats by JZL184 suppressed LPS-induced circulating cytokines that in turn may modulate central cytokine expression. The data provide further evidence for the endocannabinoid system as a therapeutic target in treatment of central and peripheral inflammatory disorders.

Abstract P5-08-07: HER3, MET and immune pathways play important roles in the resistance of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) after neoadjuvant anti-EGFR (panitumumab) combined with FEC 100.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Our group has previously reported (SABCS 2012, abstract 1081) a 2-fold higher pathologic complete response (pCR) rate in TNBC treated with panitumumab+FEC100 (47%) than with the standard therapy alone. However, in a half of the patients (pts) a residual tumor (RT) was detected. Having in mind the detrimental impact of resistant TNBC on patient outcome, we have investigated the tumor tissue factors that might have been important in development of resistance to this treatment.
Methods: 40 TNBC pts, treated with 8 cycles the anti-EGFR antibody panitumumab combined with FEC 100 for the first 4 and with docetaxel only for the last 4 cycles, were eligible. All pts underwent breast surgery after the neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) completion. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor samples were collected before and after NACT for biomarker analysis. EGFR, HER3, IGF-1R, MET and the number of FOXP3+ or CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) were evaluated by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Expression of the kinases was graded semi-quantitatively (histoscores).
Results: Out of 40 treated pts, 21 demonstrated a RT (53%, according to the Chevallier classification, PMID 8338056). The IHC data were available for 17 pts. Since high EGFR expression was important for pCR achievement in this study (SABC 2012), we first investigated the expressions of EGFR, HER3 and MET in the RT. The results are presented in Table 1.
Table 1post-NACT RTn = 17EGFR down or flatEGFR up143HER3 upHER3 flatHER3 upHER3 flat8512MET upMET down or flatMET upMET down or flatMET upMET down or flatMET upMET down or flat17220120
Overall, among the 9 cases (cs) with increased post-NACT HER3 expression (HER3 up), only 1 had increased MET (MET up), while among the 7 cs with no change in HER3 post-CTNA (HER3 flat), 4 had MET expression increased.
Interestingly, although the pre-NACT IGF-1R expression was a strong predictor of pCR (p = 0.028, SABCS 2012), no significant changes in this kinase expression were observed in the RT, compared to the pre-NACT levels. Most RT had low IGF-1R scores (<100). The only 2 RT in which IGF-1R was increased post-CTNA were small groups of tumor cells either in breast or in the nodes, heavily surrounded by lymphocytes.
The density of TIL post-NACT correlated principally with the% of tumor mass (TM) reduction. Among the 7 pts with average reduction of 20%, there was only 1 cs with a good InSitu Immune Response (ISIR: dense TIL, with CD8+/FOXP3+ > 1.2). On the contrary, among the 9 pts with average TM reduction of 90%, 8 demonstrated a good ISIR.
Conclusion: The results indicate that HER3 and MET play significant roles in development of TNBC resistance to the anti-EGFR agents. Those molecules seem to drive 2 different resistance pathways in TNBC, as it has been shown in other malignancies. As several anti-HER3 or anti-MET drugs are nowadays available, we find very important investigating the expression of HER3 and MET in each TNBC pt pre- and post-NACT, in order to rapidly detect and combat the resistance. The ISIR-stimulating agents may bring an additional therapeutic benefit to those patients.

Abstract
The association between chronic pain and depression is widely recognized, the comorbidity of which leads to a heavier disease burden, increased disability and poor treatment response. This study examined nociceptive responding to mechanical and thermal stimuli prior to and following L5-L6 spinal nerve ligation (SNL), a model of neuropathic pain, in the olfactory bulbectomized (OB) rat model of depression. Associated changes in the expression of genes encoding for markers of glial activation and cytokines were subsequently examined in the amygdala, a key brain region for the modulation of emotion and pain. The OB rats exhibited mechanical and cold allodynia, but not heat hyperalgesia, when compared with sham-operated counterparts. Spinal nerve ligation induced characteristic mechanical and cold allodynia in the ipsilateral hindpaw of both sham and OB rats. The OB rats exhibited a reduced latency and number of responses to an innocuous cold stimulus following SNL, an effect positively correlated with interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-10 mRNA expression in the amygdala, respectively. Spinal nerve ligation reduced IL-6 and increased IL-10 expression in the amygdala of sham rats. The expression of CD11b (cluster of differentiation molecule 11b) and GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein), indicative of microglial and astrocyte activation, and IL-1β in the amygdala was enhanced in OB animals when compared with sham counterparts, an effect not observed following SNL. This study shows that neuropathic pain-related responding to an innocuous cold stimulus is altered in an animal model of depression, effects accompanied by changes in the expression of neuroinflammatory genes in the amygdala.

Abstract
The endocannabinoid system plays a crucial role in regulating emotionality and social behaviour, however it is unknown whether this system plays a role in symptoms associated with autism spectrum disorders. The current study evaluated if alterations in the endocannabinoid system accompany behavioural changes in the valproic acid (VPA) rat model of autism. Adolescent rats prenatally exposed to VPA exhibited impaired social investigatory behaviour, hypoalgesia and reduced lococmotor activity on exposure to a novel aversive arena. Levels of the endocananbinoids, anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonylglycerol (2-AG) in the hippocampus, frontal cortex or cerebellum were not altered in VPA- versus saline-exposed animals. However, the expression of mRNA for diacylglycerol lipase α, the enzyme primarily responsible for the synthesis of 2-AG, was reduced in the cerebellum of VPA-exposed rats. Furthermore, while the expression of mRNA for the 2-AG-catabolising enzyme monoacylglycerol lipase was reduced, the activity of this enzyme was increased, in the hippocampus of VPA-exposed animals. CB1 or CB2 receptor expression was not altered in any of the regions examined, however VPA-exposed rats exhibited reduced PPARα and GPR55 expression in the frontal cortex and PPARγ and GPR55 expression in the hippocampus, additional receptor targets of the endocannabinoids. Furthermore, tissue levels of the fatty acid amide hydrolase substrates, AEA, oleoylethanolamide and palmitoylethanolamide, were higher in the hippocampus of VPA-exposed rats immediately following social exposure. These data indicate that prenatal VPA exposure is associated with alterations in the brain's endocannabinoid system and support the hypothesis that endocannabinoid dysfunction may underlie behavioural abnormalities observed in autism spectrum disorders.
