Supplementary feeding increases nestling feather corticosterone early in the breeding season in house sparrows [PDF]
, 2017 Several studies on birds have proposed that a lack of invertebrate prey in urbanized areas could be the main cause for generally lower levels of breeding success compared to rural habitats.

Sight of a Predator Induces a Corticosterone Stress Response and Generates Fear in an Amphibian
PLoS ONE, 2013 Amphibians, like other animals, generate corticosterone or cortisol glucocorticoid responses to stimuli perceived to be threatening. It is generally assumed that the corticosterone response of animals to capture and handling reflects the corticosterone ...

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Slaughter is a critical phase in aquaculture that can severely compromise both animal welfare and product quality. Stress responses triggered during this stage may accelerate post‐mortem biochemical degradation and promote oxidative damage in fish fillets. Essential oils, known for their antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties,

Research Note: Quantifying corticosterone in turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) feathers using ELISA
Poultry Science, 2020 The measurement of corticosterone in feathers is an appealing tool for assessing glucocorticoids in wild and domestic bird species. Feather corticosterone measurements can be performed noninvasively and can provide a means for comparing glucocorticoid ...

Medicine Advances, EarlyView.Research shows that (R, S)‐ketamine and its stereoisomers effectively reduce symptoms of post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and treatment‐resistant depression, with (R)‐ketamine offering similar benefits with fewer side effects. Evidence highlights specific neural circuits and regions, including the dentate gyrus, prefrontal cortex, vCA3, dorsal ...

Evaluation of Potential Hormonal Activities of Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ashwagandha is a widely used herb in traditional medicine systems, particularly Ayurveda. Despite its extensive tradition, growing concerns regarding its potential endocrinological effects have prompted scientific scrutiny. This review systematically evaluates the current preclinical, clinical, and case study evidence concerning AS's effects ...
