Variation in Physiological Biomarkers with Different Clostridium perfringens Isolate Infections in Balkhi Sheep

Abstract

Authors' Contribution CZ and BW are the main contributors of this research. JR is the person in charge of this project. QS and MMAR revised the manuscript.The giant panda Ailuropoda melanoleuca is one of the most iconic mammals in the world. The species has experienced declines in its habitat and population due to human disturbance. To protect this species, we investigated the relationship between giant panda habitat use intensity and human disturbance density in the Daxiangling Mountains. The results indicated that, among multiple kinds of disturbances, roads affected the giant panda habitat use significantly. In addition, roads caused the giant panda habitat use intensity to decline sharply. The giant panda nearly stopped using the habitat when road density was more than 0.4 km/km 2 . Thus, road density should be considered in the protection program. Furthermore, in areas inhabited by giant pandas, we recommend to optimizing and enhancing increased regulations to minimize the expansion and impact of roads.

Evaluation of Oleanolic Acid, Doxorubicin and Their Association in the Treatment of Melanoma: Enhanced Efficacy and Antiangiogenic Potential

“…Based on the findings, OA causes a significant decrease in cell confluency, resulting in major changes in cell shape, similar to those observed in the current study [20]. As a similar approach, Coricovac et al examined betulinic acid (BA), a compound also belonging to the family of pentacyclic triterpenes like oleanolic acid in malignant melanoma cell line A375.…”
