Stress, sex and evolution
genetics and you are bound to find phrases such as ‘stress reveals genetic variation’. The implication is that while many stresses have a slight effect on an ‘average’ organism, if the organism has a mutation then the stress can have greater impact. For bacteria this would be revealed in reduced growth. At the very least you would expect growth of mutated organisms to be inhibited by stress to ...
متن کاملCardiac ischemic stress: cardiomyocyte Ca2+ calcium, sex and sex steroids
1. Important sex differences exist in ischemic heart disease. Estrogen has been conventionally regarded as providing a cardioprotective benefit and testosterone frequently perceived to exert a deleterious effect. However, there is accumulating evidence which argues against this simple dichotomy, suggesting that the influence of estrogen and testosterone conferring benefit or detriment may be co...
متن کاملStress and sex in malaria parasites
For vector-borne parasites such as malaria, how within- and between-host processes interact to shape transmission is poorly understood. In the host, malaria parasites replicate asexually but for transmission to occur, specialized sexual stages (gametocytes) must be produced. Despite the central role that gametocytes play in disease transmission, explanations of why parasites adjust gametocyte p...
متن کاملSurgical stress and the gastrointestinal tract.
Surgery on any part of the body results in a wide spectrum of alterations in normal body homeostasis. The gastrointestinal tract is extremely sensitive to surgical stress, even at remote locations. It is now evident that the G.I. tract also plays an important role in development of postoperative complications, such as the systemic immune response syndrome and multiple organ failure syndrome. Th...
