The relation between CP-violation phase angle and the other three mixing angles in Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix is postulated. This relation has a very definite geometry meaning. The numerical result coincides surprisingly with that extracting from the experiments. It can be further put to the more precise tests in the future.

OBJECTIVES We examined whether unloading of the left ventricle with a ventricular assist device (LVAD) can result in normalization of the creatine kinase (CK) abnormalities in the failing human heart. BACKGROUND Left ventricular failure is associated with a decrease of myocardial total CK activity and a fetal shift in CK isoform expression that results in an increase in the cytosolic brain ty...

Creatine kinase (CK) provides ATP buffering in skeletal muscle and is expressed as 1) cytosolic myofibrillar CK (M-CK) and 2) sarcomeric mitochondrial CK (ScCKmit) isoforms that differ in their subcellular localization. We compared the isometric contractile and fatigue properties of 1) control CK-sufficient (Ctl), 2) M-CK-deficient (M-CK[-/-]), and 3) combined M-CK/ScCKmit-deficient null mutant...

prolonged or repeated exposure to cement dust, depending on the duration, level of exposure and individual sensitivity has health implications on the skin, eyes, respiratory and haematological systems. this study assessed cardiovascular disease risk factors and cardiac markers among cement workers of nigerian origin to determine the effects of duration of exposure to cement dust on these parame...

Let CK∗ denote the C ∗-algebra defined by the direct sum of all Cuntz-Krieger algebras. We introduce a comultiplication ∆φ and a counit ε on CK∗ such that ∆φ is a nondegenerate ∗-homomorphism from CK∗ to CK∗ ⊗ CK∗ and ε is a ∗-homomorphism from CK∗ to C. From this, CK∗ is a counital non-commutative non-cocommutative C ∗bialgebra. Furthermore, C∗-bialgebra automorphisms, a tensor product of repr...

Objective(s): The aim of this study was to explore the effects of Squid ink polysaccharide (SIP) on prevention of autophagy and oxidative stress induced by cyclophosphamide (CP) in Leydig cells of mice. Materials and Methods: Examination of reproductive organ exponents, abnormal sperm rate, activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), and histolog...

Background:One of the most common side effects of cyclophosphamide (CP) is oligo-spermatozoa, azoospermia and elimination of spermatogenic cycles. This study was done to find the efficacy of simultaneous consumption of garlic (Allium sativum L.) and orchid (Orchismaculata L.) hydroalcoholic extracts on spermatogenesis and sex hormones in rats treated with CP. ...

This study investigated the protective effect of fish oil (FO) on cisplatin (CP) toxicity in the rat liver. Twenty-eight rats were divided equally into four groups, with the first being a control group. The second group (CP group) was given 7 mg/kg of CP and the third group (FO group) was given 1 FO softgel/rat/day for 14 days. The rats in the fourth group (CP + FO group) were treated with both...
