... by adenosine deaminase improves hypoxia survival in adult D. melanogaster , likely by reducing transmembrane ion flux ( Ma et al., 2001 ). Following a detrimental disruption of ion homeostasis and the loss of neuronal activity, successful recovery from anoxia requires the ability to clear excess [K...

Together these results demonstrate a mechanism of cold acclimation in locusts that improves survival after cold stress: increased cold tolerance is accomplished by preservation of V m through maintenance of ion homeostasis...

... majority of mammals are unable to survive prolonged periods of hypothermia or O 2 deprivation owing to irreversible membrane damage and loss of cellular ion homeostasis in vital organs such as the brain and heart. However, numerous hibernating endotherms, neonatal and diving mammals as well as many...
