Investigating the Anticancer Effects of Pleurotus ostreatus Polysaccharide on G0/G1 Cell Cycle Arrest and Apoptosis in Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma Cells.

Cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Despite the advancement of cancer treatment by various means including surgery, chemotherapy etc, cancer is still a challenging disease to manage. This study was undertaken to investigate extraction, purification, structural elucidation, and the potential anti-cancer effects of Pleurotus ostreatus polysaccharide (POP).

The crucial role of the cerebellum in autism spectrum disorder: Neuroimaging, neurobiological, and anatomical insights.

Background And Aims: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition characterized by a wide range of symptoms and challenges. While ASD is primarily associated with atypical social and communicative behaviors, increasing research has pointed towards the involvement of various brain regions, including the cerebellum. This review article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the role of cerebellar lobules in ASD, highlighting recent findings and potential therapeutic implications.
