The chemical analysis of Lebanese olive oil and the influence of oil enriched diet on Plasma Lipid profile in rats. (c2002) by Zarikian, Karen Awadis

“…Following ten week low fat verses high fat diet, no significant difference was observed among the various groups in lipid profile, insulin and Apo B 100 & 48 levels. There was a decrease in clotting time in the group fed the automated olive oil compared to the control and an increase in the clotting time in the group fed cold press olive oil compared to the automated. …”

The contribution of autophagy in glioblastoma multiforme cells treated with human recombinant arginase I-induced arginine deprivation. (c2018) by El Jbeily, Elie

“…Furthermore, the contribution of autophagy to arginine depletion-induced cytotoxicity in GBM cells was tested by incubating SF and U87 cells with either HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000 alone and in combination with an autophagy inhibitor (chloroquine or 3- methyladenine) at different time points. Cell death decreased when autophagy was inhibited in SF cells at late time points, thus proving its role in arginine depletion induced cell death. …”
