Pavlovian to instrumental transfer of control over fight or flight decisions [PDF]

npj Science of Learning
This study investigated outcome-selective Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer (PIT) in fight-or-flight decision making. Participants learned to attack or retreat from monsters (instrumental phase) and to associate environments with specific monsters ...

Raman Spectroscopic Algorithms for Assessing Virulence in Oral Candidiasis: The Fight-or-Flight Response. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
This study aimed to test the effectiveness of Raman spectroscopy in the characterization of the degrees of physiological stress and virulence in clinical swab samples collected from patients affected by oral candidiasis. Raman experiments were conducted on a series of eight isolates, both in an as-collected state and after biofilm purification followed

Phosphorylation of the ryanodine receptor mediates the cardiac fight or flight response in mice. [PDF]

J Clin Invest, 2010
During the classic "fight-or-flight" stress response, sympathetic nervous system activation leads to catecholamine release, which increases heart rate and contractility, resulting in enhanced cardiac output. Catecholamines bind to β-adrenergic receptors, causing cAMP generation and activation of PKA, which phosphorylates multiple targets in cardiac ...

The fully activated open state of KCNQ1 controls the cardiac "fight-or-flight" response. [PDF]

PNAS Nexus
Abstract The cardiac KCNQ1+KCNE1 (I Ks ) channel regulates heart rhythm in both normal and stress conditions. Under stress, the β-adrenergic stimulation elevates the intracellular cAMP level, leading to KCNQ1 phosphorylation by protein kinase A and increased I Ks

Analysis on the Negative Emotional, Physiological, and Cognitive Responses Elicited from of the Activation of a Stall Alarm

Journal of Aviation/Aerospace Education & Research, 2021
Failing to identify an aerodynamic stall can lead to the inability of an aircraft to sustain flight. To warn pilots of an impending or fully-developed stall, many aircraft have safety devices installed to provide visual, aural, and/or kinesthetic (haptic)

β-Adrenergic Stimulation Synchronizes a Broad Spectrum of Action Potential Firing Rates of Cardiac Pacemaker Cells toward a Higher Population Average

Cells, 2021
The heartbeat is initiated by pacemaker cells residing in the sinoatrial node (SAN). SAN cells generate spontaneous action potentials (APs), i.e., normal automaticity.

Increased Exercise Effort after Artificially-Induced Stress: Laboratory-Based Evidence for the Catharsis Theory of Stress

Baltic Journal of Sport and Health Sciences, 2021
Background. Evolution prepared humans to deal with physical challenges. Today, people encounter psychosocial stress more than physical stress. However, the physiological response to the contemporary forms of stress is still preserved as the biological ...

Wolf Responses to Experimental Human Approaches Using High-Resolution Positioning Data

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Humans pose a major mortality risk to wolves. Hence, similar to how prey respond to predators, wolves can be expected to show anti-predator responses to humans. When exposed to a threat, animals may show a fight, flight, freeze or hide response. The type

Toxic stress-specific cytoprotective responses regulate learned behavioral decisions in C. elegans

BMC Biology, 2021
Background Recognition of stress and mobilization of adequate “fight-or-flight” responses is key for survival and health. Previous studies have shown that exposure of Caenorhabditis elegans to pathogens or toxins simultaneously stimulates cellular stress
