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.

Feather corticosterone levels on wintering grounds have no carry-over effects on breeding among three populations of great skuas (Stercorarius skua). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Environmental conditions encountered by migratory seabirds in their wintering areas can shape their fitness. However, the underlying physiological mechanisms remain largely unknown as birds are relatively inaccessible during winter.

Xiao Yao San mitigates corticosterone stimulation-induced hippocampal neuronal damage by inhibiting GR phosphorylation and nuclear translocation via FKBP4 involvement [PDF]
BMC Complementary Medicine and TherapiesBackground Corticosterone stimulation has profound physiological and neurological effects on individuals, necessitating effective interventions to mitigate its impact. Current therapeutic approaches for corticosterone stimulation injury have limitations,

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

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.

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 ...

Conservation Physiology, 2021 Abstract Physiological biomarkers are commonly used to assess the health of taxa exposed to natural and anthropogenic stressors. Glucocorticoid (GC) hormones are often used as indicators of physiological stress in wildlife because they affect growth, reproduction and survival.

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.
