TL;DR: In this article, a systematic method is given to derive Lie point symmetries of nonlinear fractional ordinary differential equations and illustrate its applicability through the fractional Riccati equation and nonlinear FDE of Lienard type with Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative.
Abstract: A systematic method is given to derive Lie point symmetries of nonlinear fractional ordinary differential equations and illustrate its applicability through the fractional Riccati equation and nonlinear fractional ordinary differential equation of Lienard type with Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative. Using the obtained Lie point symmetries, we construct their exact solutions wherever possible.

TL;DR: This fungal taxol also had strong anticancer activity against some cancer cells tested by Apoptotic assay and it is indicated that with the increase of taxol concentration from 0.005-0.05 micromol/L, taxol induced increased cell death through apoptosis.

TL;DR: Both lupeol and betulin were comparable in their ability to restore the thiol status and the antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase, and may involve the inhibition of calcium oxalate crystal aggregation and enhancement of the body defence systems.

TL;DR: In this article, a ZnBr2-mediated arylation of aryl/heteroaryl methyl bromides with arenes at 80 °C led to the formation of the arylated products, which underwent subsequent 1,5 sigmatropic rearrangement followed by electrocyclization and aromatization with loss of a diethylmalonate unit to afford the corresponding annulated products.

TL;DR: Green tea can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in diabetes with a significant improvement in lipid metabolism and beneficial effects of GTE are ascribed to its antihyperglycaemic and hypolipidaemic activity.
Abstract: SUMMARY
1The efficacy of green tea extract (GTE) on serum and cardiac lipids was investigated in streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rats.
2Diabetes was induced in rats by a single intraperitoneal injection of STZ (60 mg/kg bodyweight). Six weeks after the induction of diabetes, GTE was administered orally for 4 weeks (300 mg/kg bodyweight daily). Bodyweight, heart weight, heart weight : bodyweight ratio, blood glucose, serum and cardiac lipids were determined in experimental rats.
3In diabetic rats, there was a significant decrease in bodyweight with an increase in heart weight : bodyweight ratio and blood glucose. Diabetic rats had significantly increased serum levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, free fatty acids and low-density lipoprotein–cholesterol (LDL-C) and decreased levels of high-density lipoprotein–cholesterol (HDL-C). In the hearts of diabetic rats, there was a significant increase in cholesterol, triglycerides and free fatty acids levels, with an increase in lipoprotein lipase activity.
4The administration of GTE to diabetic rats resulted in significant recovery in bodyweight, heart weight : bodyweight ratio and blood glucose levels. The administration of GTE reduced cholesterol, triglyceride, free fatty acid and LDL-C levels, and increased HDL-C levels, in the serum of diabetic rats. In addition, GTE decreased cholesterol, triglyceride, free fatty acids levels and lipoprotein lipase activity in the myocardium of diabetic rats. These beneficial effects of GTE are ascribed to its antihyperglycaemic and hypolipidaemic activity. In conclusion, green tea can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in diabetes with a significant improvement in lipid metabolism.
