Playing Starcraft, according to the study, "stresses rapid and simultaneous maintenance, assessment, and coordination between multiple information and action sources was sufficient to affect change".
After 5th day of the stress rapid increase was detected by 6.53-fold in comparison to Day 0.
But the same biologic responses that would give a person extra strength in dangerous situations can produce physical symptoms when facing ordinary stress: rapid heart rate, feeling tense, nervous or queasy, stomachache and having sweaty palms.
This strategy ensured a strong and uniform response of the plants to drought stress, rapid harvesting, and a lack of wounding of the tissues.
In summary, these data suggest that upon genotoxic stress, rapid phosphorylation on Ser46 mediated by HIPK2 drives early activation of p53.
They also provide yet another example of microRNA-based developmental robustness in response to a specific environmental stress, rapid temperature fluctuations.
Furthermore, we demonstrate that oncogenic signalling, frequently associated with initiating cancer growth in humans, dramatically affected telomere structure and function by causing telomeric replication stress, rapid and stochastic telomere attrition, and consequently telomere dysfunction in cells that lack hTERT activity.
These include oxidative stress, rapid changes in intracellular Ca2+, excitotoxicity caused by the NMDA antagonist and GABA mimetic properties of ethanol, disruption of cell cell interactions, and interference with the activity of growth factors.
The transcriptome studies are not directly comparable, as they were performed under different experimental conditions (synchronous/asynchronous parasites, glass slide microarrays/Affymetrix chips) and corresponded to different natures of stress (rapid acting vs.slow acting).
