Fight or flight: How gender influences follower responses to unethical leader behaviour

open access: yesPublic Management Review, 2021
Does unethical leader behaviour produce gendered responses? We study follower response to unethical leader behaviours of bribery and workplace harassment. Our findings, based on an experiment, suggest that leader gender, gender congruence, and implicit gender biases influence follower responses to unethical leader behaviour.

Calcium Channel Regulation in the Fight-Or-Flight Response [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2013
Voltage-gated calcium channel type 1.2 (Cav1.2) is activated in response to cardiac action potentials and conducts calcium entry that initiates excitation-contraction coupling. Cav1.2 activity is increased by stimulation of the beta-adrenergic receptor/cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) signaling pathway in the fight-or-flight response.

Sexually dimorphic role of the locus coeruleus PAC1 receptors in regulating acute stress-associated energy metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022
Severe stress leads to alterations in energy metabolism with sexually dimorphic onset or severity. The locus coeruleus (LC) in the brainstem that mediates fight-or-flight-or-freeze response to stress is sexually dimorphic in morphology, plays a key role ...
