.../user-licence-1-1/ Summary: Hypoxia tolerance is a plastic trait in fish, and a putatively sensitive species can remodel its physiology and metabolism to effectively cope with diel cycling hypoxia. Intermittent hypoxia HSP70 Anabolism Preconditioning AMP-activated protein kinase...

...Denham G. Cook; Fathima I. Iftikar; Daniel W. Baker; Anthony J. R. Hickey; Neill A. Herbert SUMMARY It was hypothesised that chronic hypoxia acclimation (preconditioning) would alter the behavioural low-O 2 avoidance strategy of fish as a result of both aerobic and anaerobic physiological...

... of HIF activation. Subjecting animals to a brief and moderate episode of hypoxia/ischemia elicits an autoprotective response, which results in protection against a subsequent prolonged ischemic event, a phenomenon termed preconditioning (for a review, see Dirnagl et al., 2003 ). Preconditioning...

... might serve as an endogenous system to protect brain cells from damage caused by intermittent episodes of hypoxia. Along this line, EPO has been implicated in the mechanisms of ischaemic tolerance or preconditioning. Preconditioning means that practically any stimulus capable of causing injury...

... protection afforded by preconditioning and myocardial hypoxia tolerance. This latter research clearly demonstrates the capacity of the fish heart to adjust to short-term perturbations, and shows that it can be difficult to predict how short-term and long-term alterations in cardiac physiology will interact...

... activity in animal WBT, which was induced by whole-body hyperthermia (WBH) in mice. As a preconditioning treatment, WBH was applied to mice to induce WBT. Synthesis of inducible HSP70 (HSP70i) and quantification of its increased level in liver were investigated by one- and two-dimensional polyacrylamide...
