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.

Delayed effects of corticosterone on slow after-hyperpolarization potentials in mouse hippocampal versus prefrontal cortical pyramidal neurons. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The rodent stress hormone corticosterone changes neuronal activity in a slow and persistent manner through transcriptional regulation. In the rat dorsal hippocampus, corticosterone enhances the amplitude of calcium-dependent potassium currents that cause

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.

Corticosterone Can Be an Essential Stress Index in Channel Catfish (Ictalurus punctatus)
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Although cortisol is considered the main glucocorticoid involved in regulating stress in fish by elevating the serum glucose, the presence of serum corticosterone and whether its level can be used as an indicator for fish stress activation and reflect ...

Synergistic Effects of Piperine and Memantine on Reducing the Symptoms of Depression and BDNF Expression in Corticosterone Model of Depression in Amygdala and Hippocampus of Rat Brain [PDF]
Journal of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, 2023 Background and purpose: Depression is a common psychiatric disorder.There are some studies about anti-depressant effect of piperien. This study is about the synergistic effect of piperine and memantine on behavior improvement and BDNF gene expression in ...

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.
