Bioconversion of Corticosterone into Corticosterone-Glucoside by Glucosyltransferase [PDF]
Molecules, 2018 Glucosylation of the 21-hydroxyl group of glucocorticoid changes its solubility into hydrophilicity from hydrophobicity and, as with glucocorticoid glucuronides as a moving object in vivo, it is conceivable that it exhibits the same behavior.

Direct measurement of free glucocorticoids in small volumes of mouse and rat serum using ultrafiltration and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. [PDF]
PLoS ONEGlucocorticoids are critical steroid hormones secreted from the adrenal glands. In mice and rats, over 90% of circulating corticosterone is bound to proteins such as corticosteroid-binding globulin and albumin, and the rest is unbound (free).

Role of corticosterone on sleep homeostasis induced by REM sleep deprivation in rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Sleep is regulated by humoral and homeostatic processes. If on one hand chronic elevation of stress hormones impair sleep, on the other hand, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep deprivation induces elevation of glucocorticoids and time of REM sleep during the

A physiological glucocorticoid rhythm is an important regulator of brown adipose tissue function
Molecular Metabolism, 2021 Objective: Brown adipose tissue (BAT) displays a strong circadian rhythm in metabolic activity, but it is unclear how this rhythm is regulated. As circulating levels of corticosterone coincide with the rhythm of triglyceride-derived fatty acid (FA ...

The human fetus preferentially secretes corticosterone, rather than cortisol, in response to intra-partum stressors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 CONTEXT: Fetal stress is relevant to newborn outcomes. Corticosterone is rarely quantified in human clinical endocrinology and is found at much lower concentrations than cortisol.

Inhibition of proliferation, migration and proteolysis contribute to corticosterone-mediated inhibition of angiogenesis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The angiostatic nature of pharmacological doses of glucocorticoid steroids is well known. However, the consequences of pathophysiological elevation of endogenous glucocorticoids are not well established.

Effects of Dietary Corticosterone on Yolk Colors and Eggshell Quality in Laying Hens [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2015 The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary corticosterone on egg quality. For 2 weeks hens received either control or experimental diet containing corticosterone at 30 mg/kg diet.

Fecal Corticosterone Reflects Serum Corticosterone in Florida Sandhill Cranes [PDF]
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2000 Florida sandhill cranes (Grus canadensis pratensis) were conditioned to confinement 6 hr/day for 7 days. On day 8, each bird's jugular vein was catheterized, blood samples were drawn, and each crane was confined for 6 hr. Using a randomized, restricted cross-over design, cranes were injected intravenously with either 0.9% NaCl solution or ACTH ...
