Journal ArticleDOI

Allostatic load biomarkers of chronic stress and impact on health and cognition.

TL;DR: This article reviews theoretical and empirical work using the allostatic load model vis-à-vis the effects of chronic stress on physical and mental health and proposes policies for promoting successful aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic stress, cognitive functioning and mental health

TL;DR: This review summarizes the findings that have emerged from older populations as well as from populations suffering from pathological aging, namely Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial allostatic load puts the 'gluc' back in glucocorticoids.

TL;DR: It is proposed that mitochondrial dysfunction constitutes an early, modifiable target of chronic stress and stress-related health behaviours and the concept of 'mitochondrial allostatic load' defines the deleterious structural and functional changes that mitochondria undergo in response to elevated glucose levels and Stress-related pathophysiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of chronic stress on the human brain: From neurotoxicity, to vulnerability, to opportunity.

TL;DR: Modelling the roles that neurotoxic and vulnerability effects can have on the developing brain suggest that developing early stress interventions could potentially counteract the effects of chronic stress on the brain.
