Evidence for two states of thermotolerance
International Journal of Hyperthermia, 1986 The phenomenon of thermotolerance has been studied in three-day-old larvae of Lymnaea stagnalis (Pulmonata, Mollusca). The lethality of a test treatment (TT) of 1 h, 40.0 degrees C is greatly reduced by pretreatment at elevated temperatures. The induced thermotolerance shows characteristics which are dependent on duration and temperature of the ...

Cytoskeletal thermotolerance in NRK cells
International Journal of Hyperthermia, 1993 We investigated the effect of heat shock on the cytoskeletons (actin stress fibres, intermediate filaments and microtubules) and the relation between thermotolerance of cytoskeletons and thermotolerance as defined by clonogenic survival in normal rat kidney (NRK) cells.

Thermotolerance induced by 2,4-dinitrophenol
International Journal of Hyperthermia, 1987 The capacity of 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) to induce thermotolerance in 3-day-old larvae of Lymnaea has been investigated. Induction of thermotolerance is dependent on the DNP concentration, the duration of treatment, and on the pH of the medium. Optimal conditions for the induction of thermotolerance are 10 min, 2.5 mM DNP at pH 4.7.

Thermotolerance in human glioma cells
International Journal of Hyperthermia, 1995 Human glioma cells held in plateau phase were tested for the development of chronic and acute thermotolerance. Long duration, mild hyperthermia at 39-42 degrees C for up to 48 h showed no development of chronic thermotolerance. Heating at 45 degrees C immediately after mild hyperthermia showed that acute thermotolerance did develop for 40-42 degrees C ...

Thermotolerance induced by heat and ethanol
International Journal of Hyperthermia, 1988 The effect of ethanol and heat on the thermosensitivity of 3-day-old larvae of the fresh water snail Lymnaea stagnalis is investigated, especially with regard to the kinetics of thermotolerance, the effect on protein synthesis and the pattern of proteins synthesized.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Brassinosteroids (BRs) are essential plant growth- and development-regulating phytohormones. When applied exogenously, BRs ameliorate heat shock (HS)-induced cell damage and enhance plant thermotolerance; however, the molecular mechanism by which BRs ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Phenotypic plasticity is one mechanism whereby species may cope with stressful environmental changes associated with climate change. Reef building corals present a good model for studying phenotypic plasticity because they have experienced rapid climate ...

Natural variation in the thermotolerance of neural function and behavior due to a cGMP-dependent protein kinase. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 Although it is acknowledged that genetic variation contributes to individual differences in thermotolerance, the specific genes and pathways involved and how they are modulated by the environment remain poorly understood. We link natural variation in the

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 Thermotolerance of an organism is a complex trait that is influenced by a multitude of genetic and environmental factors. Many factors controlling thermotolerance in Caenorhabditis elegans are known to extend life.

Role of calmodulin in thermotolerance [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2014 Nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2) are 2 key elements in heat shock (HS) signaling pathway. Our experiments indicate the existence of a cross talk among H 2O 2, NO, Ca 2+ channels, and the activation of calmodulin (CaM) to stimulate the DNA-binding activity of HS transcription factors as well as the accumulation of HS proteins so as to ...
