Defining hormesis
- E. Calabrese, L. Baldwin
- Medicine
- Human & experimental toxicology
- 1 February 2002
Much confusion surrounds the concept of hormesis and what its biological meaning represents. This paper provides a definition of hormesis that addresses its historical foundations, quantitative… Expand
Hazardous Waste Facilities
- D. Anderton, A. Anderson, +4 authors E. Calabrese
- Geography
- 1 April 1994
Recent widely publicized studies claim facilities for treatment, storage, and disposal of hazard ous wastes (TSDFs) are located in areas with higher than average proportions of minorities, thereby… Expand
Hormesis: why it is important to toxicology and toxicologists.
- E. Calabrese
- Biology
- 2007
This article provides a comprehensive review of hormesis, a dose-response concept that is characterized by a low-dose stimulation and a high-dose inhibition. The article traces the historical… Expand
The occurrence of hormetic dose responses in the toxicological literature, the hormesis database: an overview.
- E. Calabrese, R. Blain
- Biology, Medicine
- Toxicology and applied pharmacology

Biological stress response terminology: Integrating the concepts of adaptive response and preconditioning stress within a hormetic dose-response framework.
- E. Calabrese, K. Bachmann, +55 authors M. Mattson
- Medicine, Biology
- Toxicology and applied pharmacology
- 1 July 2007
Many biological subdisciplines that regularly assess dose-response relationships have identified an evolutionarily conserved process in which a low dose of a stressful stimulus activates an adaptive… Expand
Hormesis: U-shaped dose responses and their centrality in toxicology.
- E. Calabrese, L. Baldwin
- Biology, Medicine
- Trends in pharmacological sciences
- 1 June 2001
The fundamental nature of the dose response is neither linear or threshold, but rather U-shaped. When studies are properly designed to evaluate biological activity below the traditional toxicological… Expand
