Preconditioning is hormesis part I: Documentation, dose-response features and mechanistic foundations.

TLDR
It is shown that pre- and postconditioning are specific types of hormesis, and the first documentation that hormetic effects account for preconditioning induced early and delayed windows of protection are provided.

Hormesis and embryonic stem cells

TL;DR: In this article , the authors identify and detailed assessment of hormetic dose responses of embryonic stem cells with particular emphasis on cell renewal (proliferation) and differentiation, underlying mechanistic foundations and potential therapeutic implications.

Experimental Evidence Supports New Perspectives in Homeopathy.

TL;DR: Experimental data collected in the last 10 years, by means of electronic microscopy, electron diffraction and DNA arrays investigations, are consistent with the presence of nanoparticles in homeopathic medicines and seem to provide a coherent view of the essence of the homeopathy discipline, superseding all previous speculative interpretations.

Post-conditioning hormesis creates a "subtraction to background" disease process: biological, aging, and environmental risk assessment implications.

TL;DR: This novel application of the hormesis concept, which is framed within the biological context of post-conditioning adaptive processes, offers considerable implications for the assessment of aging and environmental risk assessment.

Enzyme activity modification in adult beetles (Agelastica coerulea) inhabiting birch trees in an ozone-enriched atmosphere

TL;DR: It is indicated that total antioxidants and α- and β-esterase activities can serve as effective O3 biomarker systems in this beetle species and this adaptive response of the beetle, which was induced by moderate O3 exposure, should be further tested across generations for its protection against greater exposure.

Preconditioning with ischemia: a delay of lethal cell injury in ischemic myocardium.

TL;DR: The multiple anginal episodes that often precede myocardial infarction in man may delay cell death after coronary occlusion, and thereby allow for greater salvage of myocardium through reperfusion therapy, which is proposed to protect the heart from a subsequent sustained ischemic insult.

Hydrogen sulfide attenuates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by preservation of mitochondrial function

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the delivery of H2S at the time of reperfusion limits infarct size and preserves left ventricular (LV) function in an in vivo model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI-R) and that either administration of H 2S or the modulation of endogenous production may be of clinical benefit in ischemic disorders.

Adaptive Response of Human Lymphocytes to Low Concentrations of Radioactive Thymidine

TL;DR: When human lymphocytes were cultured with [3H]thymidine, which acts as a source of low-level chronic radiation, and then exposed to 150 rad of x-rays at 5, 7, 9, or 11 hours before fixation, the yield of chromatid aberrations was less than the sum of the yields of aberration induced by [3 H]thcyidine and x-ray separately.

Treatment of Stroke With Erythropoietin Enhances Neurogenesis and Angiogenesis and Improves Neurological Function in Rats

TL;DR: The data suggest that EPO-increased VEGF and BDNF may be involved in angiogenesis and neurogenesis, which could contribute to functional recovery.
