Parrots in the wild in Polish cities.
Amateur breeding of parrots as pets has contributed to many species being found in areas where they never occurred in the wild, particularly in warmer regions, but also in the temperate climates of North America and Europe.Climate change is likely to exacerbate this process.We hypothesised that parrots occurred in the wild in the cities of Poland,

Butyric Acid Added Apically to Intestinal Caco-2 Cells Elevates Hepatic ApoA-I Transcription and Rescues Lower ApoA-I Expression in Inflamed HepG2 Cells Co-Cultured in the Basolateral Compartment
Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) concentrations are decreased during inflammation, which may reduce high-density lipoprotein (HDL) functionality.Thus, rescuing ApoA-I concentrations during inflammation might help to prevent atherosclerosis.Recent studies have shown that butyric acid (C4) has anti-inflammatory effects and rescues ApoA-I production.Howeve
