Contrasting effects of transdermal and implant corticosterone treatments in the American bullfrog wound healing. [PDF]
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci, 2023 Glucocorticoid (GC) release is triggered by adverse stimuli that activate the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal/interrenal axis. Glucocorticoids may enhance or suppress immune functions depending on the level of elevation. In this study, we investigated the
