Osmotic Homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2015
Alterations in water homeostasis can disturb cell size and function. Although most cells can internally regulate cell volume in response to osmolar stress, neurons are particularly at risk given a combination of complex cell function and space restriction within the calvarium. Thus, regulating water balance is fundamental to survival.

Calcium Homeostasis in Myogenic Differentiation Factor 1 (MyoD)-Transformed, Virally-Transduced, Skin-Derived Equine Myotubes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dysfunctional skeletal muscle calcium homeostasis plays a central role in the pathophysiology of several human and animal skeletal muscle disorders, in particular, genetic disorders associated with ryanodine receptor 1 (RYR1) mutations, such as malignant

Cellular fate of intersex differentiation

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Infertile ovotestis (mixture of ovary and testis) often occurs in intersex individuals under certain pathological and physiological conditions. However, how ovotestis is formed remains largely unknown.

Anchored phosphatases modulate glucose homeostasis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Endocrine release of insulin principally controls glucose homeostasis. Nutrient-induced exocytosis of insulin granules from pancreatic β-cells involves ion channels and mobilization of Ca(2+) and cyclic AMP (cAMP) signalling pathways.

Epithelial Homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2014
Epithelia form intelligent, dynamic barriers between the external environment and an organism's interior. Intercellular cadherin-based adhesions adapt and respond to mechanical forces and cell density, while tight junctions flexibly control diffusion both within the plasma membrane and between adjacent cells. Epithelial integrity and homeostasis are of

Risk homeostasis in information security:challenges in confirming existence and verifying impact [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The central premise behind risk homeostasis theory is that humans adapt their behaviors, based on external factors, to align with a personal risk tolerance level.

Characterization of Hsp17, a Novel Small Heat Shock Protein, in Sphingomonas melonis TY under Heat Stress

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Bacteria are constantly exposed to a variety of environmental stresses. Temperature is considered one of the most important environmental factors affecting microbial growth and survival.

Intestinal stem cell proliferation and epithelial homeostasis in the adult Drosophila midgut [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Adult tissue homeostasis requires a tight balance between the removal of old or damaged cells and the production of new ones. Such processes are usually driven by dedicated stem cells that reside within specific tissue locations or niches.

The hyper-activation of transcriptional enhancers in breast cancer

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics, 2019
Background Activation of transcription enhancers, especially super-enhancers, is one of the critical epigenetic features of tumorigenesis. However, very few studies have systematically identified the enhancers specific in cancer tissues. Methods Here, we

Integrative concept of homeostasis: translating physiology into medicine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
To truly understand living systems they must be viewed as a whole. In order to achieve this and to come to some law to which living systems obey, data obtained on cells, tissues and organs should be integrated.
