An updated review of cold shock and cold stress in fish

Journal of Fish Biology, 2022
AbstractTemperature is critical in regulating virtually all biological functions in fish. Low temperature stress (cold shock/stress) is an often‐overlooked challenge that many fish face as a result of both natural events and anthropogenic activities.

CIRCULATORY CHANGES IN COLD-ACCLIMATION AND COLD STRESS

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 1976
1. The cardiovascular changes of conscious cold-acclimated (CA) and warm-acclimated (WA) rats during exposure to 5 degrees C or 28 degrees C were studied. 2. The cardiac output, heart rate and stroke volume of Ca rats exposed to 5 degrees C and of WA rats during cold stress were significantly greater, and their calculated total peripheral resistance ...

Cold-hearted: A case for cold stress in cancer risk

Journal of Thermal Biology, 2020
A negative correlation exists between environmental temperature and cancer risk based on both epidemiological and statistical analyses. Previously, cold stress was reported to be an effective cause of tumorigenesis. Several studies have demonstrated that cold temperature serves as a potential risk factor in cancer development. Most recently, a link was

Thermoregulatory Modeling for Cold Stress

Comprehensive Physiology, 2014
Abstract Modeling for cold stress has generated a rich history of innovation, has exerted a catalytic influence on cold physiology research, and continues to impact human activity in cold environments. This overview begins with a brief summation of cold thermoregulatory model development followed by key principles

Cold stress and cold adaptation

Journal of Thermal Biology, 1993
Abstract 1. 1. Results from more than half a century of investigation of human adaptation to cold have been so varied that some observers have doubted whether man can adapt to cold at all. 2. 2. This paper considers what challenges to the thermoregulatory system humans experience when living and working in a cold environment (specifically the

Psychological stress and susceptibility to the common cold

New England Journal of Medicine, 1991
BACKGROUND. It is not known whether psychological stress suppresses host resistance to infection. To investigate this issue, we prospectively studied the relation between psychological stress and the frequency of documented clinical colds among subjects intentionally exposed to respiratory viruses. METHODS.

Longevity and resistance to cold stress in cold-stress selected lines and their controls in Drosophila melanogaster

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2002
Abstract Thermal environments can influence many fitness-related traits including life span. Here, we assess whether longevity in Drosophila melanogaster can experimentally evolve as a correlated response to cold-stress selection, and whether genotype-by-temperature and sex-by-temperature interactions are significant components of ...

Effects of cold stress on tumor growth

Physiology & Behavior, 1978
Abstract The relationship between stress and tumor growth was assessed in experiments in which the paradigm was held constant while type of tumor and sex of rats were varied. Singly housed male and female W/Fu rats were given cold stress before and/or after injection of tumor cells, or received no stress at all.
