Other words that help us to understand "activation" would include

The offending article was a critical account of sexually paranoid and

Interestingly, when local adrenergic contractile tone is recovered by the fifteenth day after surgery [5, 15], the adrenergic inhibitory mechanism of [AT.sub.1]-mediated signaling is blunted, which prompts the compensatory upregulation of local angiotensinergic functionality by a ROS-dependent endothelial dysfunction that makes contralateral carotid
hyperreactive to angiotensin II (AngII) until the thirtieth day after surgery [5,16].
This gives direct evidence that the sympathetic nervous system is
hyperreactive in the SHR and is in general agreement with previous studies [24, 25].
The overexpression of IL-8, IL-17, tumor necrosis factor-alfa, chemokines 1, 2, 3, and 16, and matrix metalloproteinase 2 and 9 [10], suggests that PG represents a

The use of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC; e.g., Freon) powered MDIs can cause bronchospasm of

Furthermore, this
hyperreactive immune system is accompanied by abnormally high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the resulting oxidative stress (OxS) phenomenon has been considered as a potential etiological factor for CD.
There were slightly decreased muscle power and

During an asthma episode, the walls of the airways become inflamed and swollen causing narrowing or "bronchoconstriction." This occurs because asthmatic airways are "
hyperreactive" or "hyperirritable," and react easily upon contact with various triggers.
