Cutaneous responses to environmental stressors
Living organisms are continuously exposed to environmental pollutants. Because of its critical location, the skin is a major interface between the body and the environment and provides a biological barrier against an array of chemical and physical environmental pollutants. The skin can be defined as our first defense against the environment because of its constant exposure to oxidants, includin...
متن کاملMultiple physiological responses to multiple environmental challenges: an individual approach.
The injection of anthropogenically-produced CO2 into the atmosphere will lead to an increase in temperature and a decrease in pH at the surface of the oceans by 2100. Marine intertidal organisms possess the ability to cope in the short term with environmental fluctuations exceeding predicted values. However, how they will cope with chronic exposure to elevated temperature and pCO2 is virtually ...
متن کاملDepressive symptoms and attenuated physiological reactivity to laboratory stressors.
There is evidence that depressive symptoms are associated with attenuated physiological reactivity to active stressors. However, it is not known whether blunted reactivity in depressed individuals is stressor-specific. We examined cardiovascular and electrodermal reactivity in non-clinical participants with varying levels of depressive symptoms to different active and passive stressors. Depress...
متن کاملPhysiological Responses of Cattle to Heat Stress
Pakistan lies in the Warm Climate Zones of the world and is subjected to extended periods of high ambient temperature and relative humidity. The objective of this article is to review the physiologic/adaptive responses of acclimated cattle to heat stress emphasizing its affects on nutrient acquisition and metabolism, acid-base chemistry and hormonal balance of the body. Heat stress invokes a de...
متن کاملphysiological responses of fennel seedling to four environmental stresses
fennel (foeniculum vulgare mill.) is widely cultivated for its edible, strongly-flavored leaves, fruits, seeds andmedicinal uses. as the wild and cultivated plants are influenced by environmental stresses, the effects of salt (25, 50 and 75 mm nacl), nitrogen and iron deficiency (0 n, 0.5 n of hoagland’s solution, 0 fe and 0.5 fe ofhoagland’s solution), 2°c cold (2, 3 and 4 h) and drought (3, 5...
