Mechanical stress

2015
This chapter discusses mechanical stressors that are believed to be associated with work-related musculoskeletal disorders. It starts with an introduction to work-related musculoskeletal disorders (particularly those with high incidences in workplaces, such as disorders of low back, neck/shoulder, hand/wrist, elbow, and knee) in high-risk industries ...

Cell differentiation by mechanical stress

The FASEB Journal, 2001
ABSTRACT Growth factors, hormones, and other regulatory molecules are traditionally required in tissue engineering studies to direct the differentiation of progenitor cells along specific lineages. We demonstrate that mechanical stimulation in vitro , without ligament ...

Mechanisms of Stress (Takotsubo) Cardiomyopathy

Heart Failure Clinics, 2013
Stress cardiomyopathy is a form of reversible systolic dysfunction of the mid and apical left ventricle with pathologic changes of the electrocardiogram in the absence of an obstructive coronary artery disease. The prevalence of stress cardiomyopathy among patients with symptoms suggestive of myocardial infarction is 0.7% to 2.5%, and it is found ...

Mechanical Stress Regulates Bone Metabolism Through MicroRNAs

Journal of Cellular Physiology, 2016
There are many lines of evidence indicating that mechanical stress regulates bone metabolism and promotes bone growth. BMP, Wnt, ERK1/2, and OPG/RANKL are the main molecules thought to regulate the effects of mechanical loading on bone formation ...

Mechanisms of stress (Takotsubo) cardiomyopathy

Nature Reviews Cardiology, 2010
Stress cardiomyopathy, also referred to as Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, transient apical ballooning or broken heart syndrome, is a disorder associated with transient left ventricular dysfunction. Symptoms include acute chest pain and dyspnea accompanied by electrocardiographic changes, such as ST-segment elevation and T-wave inversions, minimal elevation ...

Oxidative stress as a mechanism of teratogenesis

Birth Defects Research Part C: Embryo Today: Reviews, 2006
Emerging evidence shows that redox-sensitive signal transduction pathways are critical for developmental processes, including proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. As a consequence, teratogens that induce oxidative stress (OS) may induce teratogenesis via the misregulation of these same pathways.

Mechanics of Stresses

2013
We shall continue now the theoretical study of the preceding chapter, by putting in evidence the stresses which arise because of the deformation of a solid body; both vector and tensor aspects of the stress are thus emphasized.

Metabolic Mechanisms of Stress Hyperglycemia

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 2006
Stress hyperglycemia has gained the attention of virtually every physician who encounters critically ill patients, with the emergence of clinical data supporting tight glycemic control and intensive insulinization for optimal outcome. In order to effectively manage stress hyperglycemia, newer theories of critical illness and the interactions of the ...

Effects of stress on muscarinic mechanisms

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 1988
Hyperactivity of muscarinic mechanisms may be involved in the patho-physiology of depressive disorders and stress. The literature emphasizes the impact of stress on aminergic networks and muscarinic mechanisms are generally not accorded a significant role in the neurobiology of stress.

Learning to cope with stress: psychobiological mechanisms of stress resilience

Reviews in the Neurosciences, 2012
Stress is the main non-genetic source of psychopathology. Therefore, the identification of neurobiological bases of resilience, the resistance to pathological outcomes of stress, is a most relevant topic of research. It is an accepted view that resilient individuals are those who do not develop helplessness, or other depression-like phenotypes ...
