Biological stress response terminology: Integrating the concepts of adaptive response and preconditioning stress within a hormetic dose-response framework

Edward J. Calabrese, +57 more
TL;DR: This article offers a set of recommendations that scientists believe can achieve greater conceptual harmony in dose-response terminology, as well as better understanding and communication across the broad spectrum of biological disciplines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relative contributions of history-taking, physical examination, and laboratory investigation to diagnosis and management of medical outpatients.

TL;DR: To evaluate the relative importance of the medical history, the physical examination, and laboratory investigations in the diagnosis and management of medical outpatients some physicians recorded their diagnosis and a prediction of the method of management after reading the patient's referral letter, again after taking the history, and again after performing thePhysical examination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Medium from irradiated human epithelial cells but not human fibroblasts reduces the clonogenic survival of unirradiated cells

TL;DR: Examination of unirradiated cultures 48 h after receiving irradiated medium revealed the presence of high numbers of apoptotic bodies and other morphological evidence suggesting apoptosis may be a prominent mechanism of cell death responsible for the reduced cloning efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiation-induced bystander effects: past history and future directions

TL;DR: A review of the history of bystander effects in the earlier literature, in which the clastogenic effect of plasma from irradiated patients was well known, and the effect was known to persist for several years and to cause transgenerational effects, similar to what the authors now call genomic instability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiation-induced bystander effects — implications for cancer

TL;DR: There is strong evidence for a chemical signalling process that transmits information from the irradiated cell to neighbouring cells, which has several important implications for radiation protection, radiotherapy and diagnostic radiology.
