Heat-Shock Response
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Heat-Shock Response'A constellation of responses that occur when an organism is exposed to excessive heat and other environmental stressors. Responses include synthesis of some proteins, repression of other proteins, and expression of new proteins. (From Segen, Dictionary of Modern Medicine, 1992) Common names: Heat-Shock Response; Heat Shock Response; Heat-Shock Responses; Heat-Shock Reaction; Heat Shock Reaction; Heat-Shock Reactions |

Testicular injuries like torsion or cryptorchidism can cause massive germ cell death, which could have great impact on male reproductive health. In addition, it has been proposed that modern life style, in the form of underwear or sedentary work ... Read more...
31 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: The marine model organism Rhodopirellula baltica SH1(T) was the first Planctomycete to have its genome completely sequenced. The genome analysis predicted a complex lifestyle and a variety of genetic opportunities to adapt to the marine ... Read more...
Coral bleaching under thermal stress: putative involvement of host/symbiont recognition mechanisms.
2 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: Coral bleaching can be defined as the loss of symbiotic zooxanthellae and/or their photosynthetic pigments from their cnidarian host. This major disturbance of reef ecosystems is principally induced by increases in water temperature. ... Read more...
