... Preconditioning AMP-activated protein kinase Hypoxia is a common, naturally occurring phenomenon in aquatic ecosystems ( Dan et al., 2014 ; Richards, 2011 ; Yang et al., 2013 ). The principal causes are the effect of temperature on oxygen solubility ( Culberson and Piedrahita, 1996 ), water column...

...Denham G. Cook; Fathima I. Iftikar; Daniel W. Baker; Anthony J. R. Hickey; Neill A. Herbert SUMMARY It was hypothesised that chronic hypoxia acclimation (preconditioning) would alter the behavioural low-O 2 avoidance strategy of fish as a result of both aerobic and anaerobic physiological...

... protection afforded by preconditioning and myocardial hypoxia tolerance. This latter research clearly demonstrates the capacity of the fish heart to adjust to short-term perturbations, and shows that it can be difficult to predict how short-term and long-term alterations in cardiac physiology will interact...

... activity in animal WBT, which was induced by whole-body hyperthermia (WBH) in mice. As a preconditioning treatment, WBH was applied to mice to induce WBT. Synthesis of inducible HSP70 (HSP70i) and quantification of its increased level in liver were investigated by one- and two-dimensional polyacrylamide...
