Effects of garlic and aspirin on some blood parameters of new zeland rabbits fed cholesterol rich ration by Zafer Durgun, Ercan Keskin, Nurcan Dönmez, Feyyaz Önder

“…In the study, the effects of aspirin and garlic powder supplementation on some haemotological parameters in hypercholesterolaemic rabbits were investigated.Although the plasma cholesterol level in the groups fed cholesterol -rich ration for 4 weeks significantly (p<0.05) increased as compared with the control group, the plasma cholesterol levels in the group supplemented with garlic powder was found to be significantly lower than in both the group received the cholesterol-rich ration alone and the group fed the ration with aspirin (p<0.05).The haematocrit levels and erythrocyte counts in the groups supplemented with garlic (%29.2, 3.57x10⁶ respectively) and aspirin (%28.2, 3.4x10⁶ respectively) were significantly lower as compared with the control group (%38.5, 4.82x10⁶ respectively) and the group fed the cholesterol-rich ration alone (%40.4, 4.78x10⁶ respectively) (p<0.05). …”

LncRNA MBNL1-AS1 Suppresses Cell Proliferation and Metastasis of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma through Targeting Carcinogenic miR-301b-3p by Chouman Sulidankazha, null Alidake, Hai Lin, Tieying He, Wei Han, Qilong Chen

“…Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) data showed that MBNL1-AS1 expression was significantly downregulated in PAAD tissues and cells, which was closely associated with metastasis and poor prognosis. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, transwell assay, and western blot verified that overexpression of MBNL1-AS1 suppressed cell proliferation, migration, and epithelial mesenchymal transformation (EMT) behavior in PAAD cells. …”

Effective theory approach to new physics with flavour: general framework and a leptoquark example by Marzia Bordone, Oscar Catà, Thorsten Feldmann

“…Our formalism represents an extension of the well-known minimal-flavour-violation approach, and uses Froggatt-Nielsen charges to define the flavour power-counting. As a relevant illustration of the formalism, we apply it to the flavour structures which could be induced by a U1 vector leptoquark, which represents one of the possible explanations for the recent hints of flavour non-universality in semileptonic B-decays. …”
