Figure 26.1. Hormesis may be defined as a dose-response relationship that is characterized by a biphasic (J- or inverted U-shaped) response. The quantitative features of the typical hermetic responses are similar, with the magnitude of the maximum stimulatory response typically being 30-60% greater than controls, the width of the stimulatory or hermetic zone averaging approximately 10-fold, and the interval from the zero equivalent point to the maximum stimulation averaging four- to fivefold (Calabrese and Blain 2005). [Figure adapted from Nascarella et al. (2009).]... Figure 26.1. Hormesis may be defined as a dose-response relationship that is characterized by a biphasic (J- or inverted U-shaped) response.
