Adaptation to harshness is fundamentally different from the adaptive stress response: Results from a 20‐year‐long case study in African striped mice

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Animals in harsh environments rely on specialised adaptations. Two decades of field research on African striped mice (Rhabdomys pumilio) in the Succulent Karoo semi‐desert reveal a distinct ‘harshness response’—marked by reduced metabolism and glucocorticoid levels—that differs fundamentally from the classic stress response.

The Protective Effects of Polygala tenuifolia and Tenuifolin on Corticosterone-Evoked Ferroptosis, Oxidative Stress, and Neuroinflammation: Insights from Molecular Dynamics Simulations and In Vitro Experiments

open access: yesFoods
Excessive stress is a well-established contributor to neurological damage, insomnia, and depression, imposing a significant burden on individuals and society. This underscores the urgent need for effective stress-relief strategies.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Gastric Motility in Conscious Rats

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
By training rats to remain awake inside an MRI scanner, we can now noninvasively scan their gastrointestinal tracts without using anesthesia. This allows us to assess gastric motility and emptying in conscious rats without the various confounding effects that anesthesia might cause.

Circadian Corticosterone Profile in Laying Hens (Gallus gallus domesticus)

open access: yesAnimals
Measurement of blood corticosterone concentrations has been established as an indicator for assessment of acute distress. Therefore, knowledge on physiological fluctuations is required, but previous studies allow little conclusion on daily fluctuations ...

A Review of the Mechanisms of Action of the Herbal Medicine, STW 5‐II, Underlying Its Efficacy in Disorders of Gut–Brain Interaction

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
The pathophysiology of functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome includes altered motility, secretion, sensitivity to sensory signals, impaired epithelial barrier function, inflammation, and gut dysbiosis. The phytomedicine, STW 5‐II, represents a multi‐targeted approach, addressing these pathophysiologies.

Confined spaces in space: Cerebral implications of chronic elevations of inspired carbon dioxide and implications for long‐duration space travel

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cerebrovascular regulation is critically dependent upon the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2${P_{{\mathrm{aC}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$), owing to its effect on cerebral blood flow, tissue PCO2${P_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$, tissue proton concentration, cerebral metabolism and cognitive and neuronal ...

Indometh acin-antihistamine combination for gastric ulceration control [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
An anti-inflammatory and analgesic composition containing indomethacin and an H2 histamine receptor antagonist in an amount sufficient to reduce gastric distress caused by the indomethacin was developed.
