Effects of Acute and Chronic Exposure to Predatory Cues on Spatial Learning Capabilities in the Subterranean Rodent Ctenomys talarum (Rodentia: Ctenomyidae)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2014-02)
Spatial learning, the cognitive ability that allows animals to efficiently locate food, partners or avoid predators, can be affected by various factors such as stress. Stressors represent a threat to the animal's homeostasis ...
Effect of chronic aspirin administration on an experimental model of metabolic syndrome
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2009-02)
1. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of chronic administration of aspirin on metabolic and cardiovascular parameters in fructose-fed rats (FFR), an experimental model of metabolic syndrome. 2. Chronic ...
Hair cortisol: A new tool for evaluating stress in programs of stress management
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015-11)
Aims: Longitudinal and experimental studies have shown that chronic stress contributes to the onset and progression of different diseases. Although it is not possible to eliminate stress completely, people can learn to ...
Not all vascular smooth muscle cell exosomes calcify equally in chronic kidney disease
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018-02-01)
Prevention of medial calcification in patients with chronic kidney disease requires the maintenance of vascular smooth muscle cell fitness. To preserve viability under chronic kidney disease–induced stress, vascular smooth ...
Alteration of neurotrophin and cytokine expression in lymphocytes as novel peripheral markers of spatial memory deficits induced by prenatal stress
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-05)
Much evidence has suggested that early life adversity can have a lasting effect on behavior. The aim of this study was to explore the impact of prenatal exposure to stress on cognition in adult life and how it impacts ...
In search of concomitant alterations of dopaminergic and neurotensinergic systems in stress conditions
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2016-02)
The aim of the present article is to review experimental evidence which suggest joint involvement of both the dopaminergic and neurotensinergic systems in stress conditions. At present, the concept of stress refers to an ...
Lifetime glucocorticoid profiles in baleen of right whale calves: Potential relationships to chronic stress of repeated wounding by Kelp Gulls
(Oxford University Press, 2018-08)
Baleen tissue accumulates stress hormones (glucocorticoids, GC) as it grows, along with other adrenal, gonadal and thyroid hormones. The hormones are deposited in a linear fashion such that a single plate of baleen allows ...
Transcriptional Up-Regulation of APE1/Ref-1 in hepatic tumor: Role in hepatocytes resistance to oxidative stress and apoptosis
(Public Library of Science, 2015-12)
Objective Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most frequent neoplasm worldwide and the most serious complication of long-standing chronic liver diseases (CLD). Its development is associated with chronic ...
Tempol blunts afferent arteriolar remodeling in chronic nitric oxide-deficient hypertension without normalizing blood pressure
(Taylor & Francis, 2013-06)
Renal preglomerular vessels play a central role in modulating renal function and injury, especially during conditions of renal hemodynamic stress such as hypertension. We evaluated whether improving the balance between ...
Placental glycoredox dysregulation associated with disease progression in an animal model of superimposed preeclampsia
(MDPI AG, 2021-04)
Pregnancies carried by women with chronic hypertension are at increased risk of superimposed preeclampsia, but the placental pathways involved in disease progression remain poorly understood. In this study, we used the ...
