Hydrogen sulphide regulates inward-rectifying K+ channels in conjunction with stomatal closure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is the third biological gasotransmitter and, in animals, affects many physiological processes by modulating ion channels. H2S has been reported to protect plants from oxidative stress in diverse physiological responses. H2S closes

An Empirical Study Comparing Unobtrusive Physiological Sensors for Stress Detection in Computer Work. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Several unobtrusive sensors have been tested in studies to capture physiological reactions to stress in workplace settings. Lab studies tend to focus on assessing sensors during a specific computer task, while in situ studies tend to offer a generalized ...

Blood concentrations of lactate, glucose and corticosterone in dispersing hatchling sea turtles

open access: yesBiology Open, 2012
Summary Natal dispersal of sea turtles is an energetically demanding activity that is fuelled primarily by aerobic metabolism. However, during intense exercise reptiles can use anaerobic metabolism to supplement their energy requirements.

Physiological dynamics of stress contagion [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractCan viewing others experiencing stress create a “contagious” physiological stress response in the observer? To investigate second-hand stress, we first created a stimulus set of videos, which featured participants speaking under either minimal stress, high stress, or while recovering from stress.

Association between changes in heart rate variability during the anticipation of a stressful situation and the stress-induced cortisol response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Vagal activity - reflecting the activation of stress regulatory mechanisms and prefrontal cortex activation - is thought to play an inhibitory role in the regulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis.

DJ-1 interacts with and regulates paraoxonase-2, an enzyme critical for neuronal survival in response to oxidative stress. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Loss-of-function mutations in DJ-1 (PARK7) gene account for about 1% of all familial Parkinson's disease (PD). While its physiological function(s) are not completely clear, DJ-1 protects neurons against oxidative stress in both in vitro and in vivo ...
