All organisms respond to heat by inducing the synthesis of a group of proteins called the
heat-shock proteins or hsps. The response is the most highly conserved genetic system …

This review is directed at understanding how neuronal death occurs in two distinct insults,
global ischemia and focal ischemia. These are the two principal rodent models for human …

Heat shock proteins (Hsps) have been studied for many years and there is now a large body
of evidence that demonstrates the role of Hsp upregulation in tissue and cell protection in a …

A number of studies indicate that prolonged, major depression is associated with a selective
loss of hippocampal volume that persists long after the depression has resolved. This review …

Recent intriguing reports have shown an association between major depression and
selective and persistent loss of hippocampal volume, prompting considerable speculation as …

During normal human pregnancy a subpopulation of fetal cytotrophoblast stem cells
differentiate and invade the uterus and its arterioles. In the pregnancy disease …

Cells have developed complex ways to respond to various stresses. Interestingly, stresses
such as heat, ischaemia and radiation can induce different cellular responses depending on …
