Words similar to stress
Example sentences for: stress
How can you use “stress” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Because the transcript levels of the genes represented in the present collection change in response to stress, protein-binding motifs associated with stress-inducibility should be over-represented in the promoters of the stress collection when compared with the total complement of Arabidopsis promoters.
There is evidence that the H-box motif is involved in developmental regulation of flowering, but there is no report of its involvement in stress/defense responses [ 88 89 ] . However, a combination of the H-box motif and the G-box motif has been shown to be important for binding of bZIP transcription factors to rapidly induce defense-related genes [ 47 90 91 ] . The significant over-representation of these two motifs together in the promoter sequences of the stress cDNA collection suggests that combinatorial interactions between these two cis -elements may also be important in the regulation of stress-responsive genes.
Recent behavioral experiments in rats stress the prominence of the CT over the NG for the bitter taste [ 26 27 28 ] . We have found that mice with bilateral CT cut have a significantly impaired ability to discriminate water from the bitter stimulus denatonium benzoate in two bottle preference (TBP) tests, while mice with bilateral NG cut showed no difference from the sham surgery group (own unpublished observations).
Previous studies have shown that TNFα, like other death receptors, stimulates the accumulation of the second messenger ceramide, and that this lipid signaling molecule can serve as an upstream activator of cell stress signaling pathways [ 41 ] . Measurements of total cellular ceramide in CLENDO cells revealed that ceramide levels were significantly elevated (P < 0.05) as early as 2 min following TNFα treatment, and remained elevated through 30 min of treatment (Fig.
This has led to suggestions that increased oxidative stress resistance and decreased amounts of oxidative damage may be the mechanism by which mutation of the insulin-like signaling pathway causes increased life span.
