Heat Stress in the Workplace [PDF]
Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings, 2000 Many work environments expose workers to extremely hot and humid conditions. The most vivid example of this is the firefighter, who inevitably must tolerate heat stress as part of the risks inherent to his or her job. Whereas the worker is expected to report imminent heat exhaustion before catastrophe occurs, ultimately the employer is held liable by ...

Transcriptome analysis identifies genes and co-expression networks underlying heat tolerance in pigs
BMC Genetics, 2020 Background Heat stress adversely affects pig growth and reproduction performance by reducing feed intake, weight gain, farrowing rate, and litter size. Heat tolerance is an important characteristic in pigs, allowing them to mitigate the negative effects ...

Heat stress response and heat stress transcription factors
Journal of Biosciences, 1998 Expression of heat shock protein (HSP)-coding genes is controlled by heat stress transcription factors (Hsfs). They are structurally and functionally conserved throughout the eukaryotic kingdom. In addition to the DNA-binding domain with the helix-turn-helix motif essential for DNA recognition, three functional parts in the C-terminal activator domain ...
