Measuring Electrophile Stress

Current Protocols in Toxicology, 2009
AbstractPolyunsaturated fatty acids are primary targets during oxidative stress. Diffusible electrophilic α,β‐unsaturated aldehydes, such as 4‐hydroxynonenal (HNE), have been shown to modify proteins that mediate cell signaling and modify gene expression pathways. We describe a global strategy for identifying the protein targets of HNE modification.

Measurement of residual stress in the brain

Journal of Biomechanical Engineering
ABSTRACT Mechanical stress in brain tissue is an important feature of the brain, likely to play key roles in brain development and brain injury. Here, we characterize residual stresses in grey matter and white matter from the deformed shape of tissue cylinders extracted from the brain using a biopsy needle and imaged with high ...

AbstractEmpirical findings from studies of stressful life events and well‐being have been disappointing. The difficulty with this literature may be attributed in part to basic problems in the measurement of stressful life events. The purpose of this article is to propose a measurement strategy that is based on stressors arising within social roles ...
