...er cells like pancreas, oesophagus and lungs. This study aims to determine the role of TA in cell viability and apoptosis in glioma cells (T-98G) and androgen-sensitive human prostate cancer cell line (LNCaP). In our study, 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 μM doses of TA were applied to T-98G and LNCaP cell lines for periods of 24 and 48 h. Subsequent cell vitality was tested with MTT Atest. The effective doses were analysed by flow cytometry and real-time PCR tec...

...roat, pharynx, crop, and esophagus with a cotton swab. Utilizing direct smear and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques, 30 (30%) of the 100 collected samples were found to be positive. A DNA sequence of 372 bp length that partly encompassed the coding region of the ITS1-5.8s rRNA-ITS2 gene within ten samples (assigned 1-10) was amplified in this study. The PCR amplicons that were found in the amplified genetic region were directly sequenced. The detected...

...hanges that occur in the esophagus and stomach during the postnatal periods of guinea pigs’ lives. For this purpose, pregnant guinea pigs in good health condition were obtained from public markets and housed in the animal facility until delivery to obtain neonate guinea pigs. Ten pups were separated from their mothers on the second day of their lives and euthanized using an overdose of ketamine HCl (85-95 mg/kg BW). The topographic position of organs was...

...ntify differences in the esophagus of ostriches and turkeys at the macroscopic, microscopic, histochemical, and immunohistochemical levels. Seven male turkeys and ostriches were obtained from Diyala province during the summer (July-September). Euthanasia was performed using anesthesia with Xylazine and Ketamine. Esophageal sections (cranial, middle, and caudal) were collected for microscopic, immunohistochemical, and biochemical analysis. Compared to turkeys, ...
