Exposure to stress can affect the establishment of dominance hierarchies. In our model, a social hierarchy established by two male rats during a first encounter is not maintained 1 week later. If one of the two rats is stressed, the stressed rat becomes su ...
Stress can have a strong and long lasting effect on the establishment and maintenance of dominance hierarchies in rats. When two rats of a pair have not been stressed (non-stressed pair) before a first social encounter, they establish a dominance hierarchy ...
In a bilingual paper entitled 'Bibliometrics as weapons of mass citation - La bibliometrie comme arme de citation massive',([1]) recently translated into English,([2]) we have argued that the current fashion of ranking people, papers and journals is anythi ...
The mechanical interactions between heart contraction and perfusion of the heart are difficult to study in humans because of the restrictions in inducing changes in hemodynamic and cardiac mechanics parameters during catheterization. We hypothesize that th ...
Premature babies are not fully equipped to deal with the outside world. Their immature bodies make them highly at risk to a large number of physiological complications. Therefore, while they are still immature, premature babies are taken care of in neonato ...
Intensive research over the past few years has provided evidence, that stress is a potent modulator of brain function and cognition. In particular cognitive and emotional processes have been shown to be susceptible to modulation by stress. Whereas acute st ...
Iron is a transitional metal required by virtually all organisms as a dietary micromineral, indispensable for cellular survival and proliferation. The management of iron absorption and distribution in the organism and inside the cell must be tightly regula ...
In the developing heart, a subset of endothelial cells (ECs) undergo a process of endothelial to mesenchymal transformation (EMT) that leads to the remodeling of the cardiac cushions and the formation of the cardiac valves. Understanding how microenvironme ...
Motivated by the growing wealth of biological data and the increasing pathophysiological knowledge at different scales, spectacular progress have been made in comprehensive modeling to understand the complex nature of biological organs, such as the heart. ...
Recently the function of the sirtuin family, named after their homology to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene silent information regulator 2 (Sir2), has received a lot of attention, as their beneficial impact on longevity was linked to their effects on meta ...
