@#Abstract: Toxoplasma gondii, an opportunistic pathogenic protozoan, is widely distributed worldwide and can cause zoonoses, which is a serious threat to human health. Nowadays, the relationship between T. gondii infection and neuropsychiatric diseases has attracted researchers' attention increasingly. T. gondii infection is related to the pathogenesis of many neuropsychiatric diseases by affecting the nervous system, such as schizophrenia, depression, Alzheimer's disease, and so on. This review will focus on the relationship between T. gondii infection and neuropsychiatric diseases and summarizes the possible mechanisms of disorders resulting from T. gondii infection． It is expected that the study on the related pathogenic mechanism of T. gondii will lead to new therapeutic directions and feasible solution for the clinical treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases caused by T. gondii infection.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate whether the connection of p27(Kip1) to S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (Skp2) plays an oncogenic role in intraductal proliferative lesions of the breast.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Here we investigated the mechanism involved in association of Skp2’s degradation of p27(Kip1) with the breast carcinogenesis by immunohistochemical method through detection of Skp2 and p27(Kip1) protein levels in 120 paraffin-embedded tissues of intraductal proliferative lesions including usual ductal hyperplasia (UDH, n=30), atypical ductal hyperplasia (n=30), flat epithelial atypia (FEA, n=30), and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS, n=30). Moreover, the expression status of Skp2 and p27(Kip1) in 30 cases of the normal breast paraffin-embedded tissues were explored.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The DCIS group was with the highest Skp2 level and the lowest p27(Kip1) level, and the UDH group was with the lowest Skp2 level and the highest p27(Kip1) level.Both Skp2 and p27(Kip1) levels in the DCIS group were significantly different from those in the UDH group (all P<0.01).The levels of Skp2 and p27(Kip1) in the FEA group were significantly different from both the DCIS and UDH groups (all P<0.05).p27(Kip1) was negatively correlated with Skp2 in both the UDH group (r=-0.629, P=0.026) and DCIS group (r=-0.893, P=0.000).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Overexpression of Skp2 might be the mechanism underlying p27(Kip1) over degradation.</p>
