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.

How does hormesis impact biology, toxicology, and medicine?

TL;DR: A working compartmentalization of hormesis is established into ten categories that provide an integrated understanding of the biological meaning and applications of horm Genesis to aid in designing and interpreting future studies.

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

TL;DR: Treatment with rhEPO significantly improved functional recovery, along with increases in density of cerebral microvessels at the stroke boundary and numbers of BrdU, doublecortin, and nestin immunoreactive cells in the SVZ.

Preconditioning is hormesis part II: How the conditioning dose mediates protection: Dose optimization within temporal and mechanistic frameworks

TL;DR: The present analysis reveals that hormetic biphasic dose responses were associated with both the conditioning process and the protective effects elicited following the challenging dose, indicating that the biological/biomedical effects induced by conditioning represent a specific type of hormetic dose response and thereby contribute significantly to a generalization of the hormetic concept.

Hormesis outperforms threshold model in National Cancer Institute antitumor drug screening database.

TL;DR: Hormetic response patterns were observed approximately four times more often than would be expected by chance alone and support the hormetic model as the default model for scientific interpretation of low-dose toxicological responses.

Nitrite confers protection against myocardial infarction: Role of xanthine oxidoreductase, NADPH oxidase and KATP channels

TL;DR: The ability of nitrite and nitrate to confer protection against myocardial infarction in two rat models of ischemia/reperfusion injury and the role of xanthine oxidoreductase, NADPH oxidase, nitric oxide synthase and K(ATP) channels in mediating nitrite-induced cardioprotection are determined.

Resveratrol, a unique phytoalexin present in red wine, delivers either survival signal or death signal to the ischemic myocardium depending on dose.

TL;DR: Results indicate that at lower doses (2.5 or 5 mg/kg), resveratrol exerts survival signal by up-regulating anti-apoptotic and redox proteins Akt and Bcl-2, while at higher doses (>25 mg/ kg), it potentiates a death signal by down- Regulating redox protein and up-Regulating pro-APoptotic proteins.

Hydrogen sulfide alleviated chromium toxicity in wheat.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of H2S on seed germination under chromium (Cr) stress were investigated in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), and the results showed that the percentage of germination of wheat seeds decreased under Cr stress, but this decrease could be alleviated by pretreatment with NaHS, in a dose-dependent manner.

Protection of oxidative preconditioning against apoptosis induced by H2O2 in PC12 cells: mechanisms via MMP, ROS, and Bcl-2.

TL;DR: It was suggested that the preconditioning with low dose of H2O2 could protect the oxidative stress-induced PC12 cells apoptosis not only by preventing the reduction of MMP and expression of Bcl-2 as well as increase in ROS level, but also through overexpression of B cl-2.
