Acute and chronic glucocorticoid treatments regulate astrocyte-enriched mRNAs in multiple brain regions in vivo

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2013
Previous studies have primarily interpreted gene expression regulation by glucocorticoids in the brain in terms of impact on neurons; however, less is known about the corresponding impact of glucocorticoids on glia and specifically astrocytes in vivo ...

Corticosterone and Mitochondrial Efficiency Are Associated With Changes in DNA Oxidative Damage During an Acute Stress Response in Leach's Storm‐Petrels (Hydrobates leucorhous)

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ability of organisms to effectively respond to challenges is critical for survival. We investigated how an acute stressor affected corticosterone, mitochondrial function, and DNA oxidative damage in a wild population of Leach's storm‐petrels (Hydrobates leucorhous).

Corticosterone enhances the potency of ethanol against hippocampal long-term potentiation via local neurosteroid synthesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Corticosterone is known to accumulate in brain after various stressors including alcohol intoxication. Just as severe alcohol intoxication is typically required to impair memory formation only high concentrations of ethanol (60mM) acutely inhibit long ...

Offspring Global DNA Methylation is not Affected by Parental Developmental Stress Experience in a Passerine Species

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rapid phenotypic change may be mediated by intergenerational transmission of early developmental experiences. In birds, exposure to glucocorticoids during early development can alter global DNA methylation and gene expression. However, DNA methylation is labile, and it is currently unclear whether the impacts of stress suffered during juvenile

The Role of Corticosterone Rhythmicity in Puberty [PDF]

open access: yesBiology of Reproduction, 1976
To establish the functional importance of a peripheral rhythm of corticosterone in the timing of the onset of vaginal opening and ovulation, rats were adrenalectomized at 22 days of age and maintained on either saline or corticosterone (B) dissolved in their drinking water.

Corticosterone Induces Depressive-Like Behavior in Female Peri-Pubescent Rats, but Not in Pre-Pubescent Rats

open access: yesChronic Stress, 2020
Background There are no data on the effect of exogenous corticosterone on depressive-like behavior in juvenile rats. Furthermore, it has not been tested whether the effects of corticosterone in female rats is different before or after puberty.

Behavioural Endocrinology of Breeding Adelie Penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Measuring hormonal changes is vital for understanding how the social and physical environment influences behaviour, reproduction and survival. Various methods of hormone measurement exist, potentially explaining variation in results across studies ...

Mass Spectrometry Insights Into Post‐Translational Modifications in Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐enclosed structures secreted by virtually all living cells, serving as essential mediators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological processes. There is growing interest in their potential applications as biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and drug delivery systems, which ...

Climate‐Modulated Particle Toxicity: Acute Exposure to an Environmentally Informed Microplastic Mixture Induces Sex‐Dependent Systemic Reorganization in Swiss Mice

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is widely recognized as an emerging environmental threat. Yet, most studies still rely on controlled experimental conditions that poorly reflect environmental complexity, potentially underestimating risks under realistic scenarios, particularly during short‐term exposures. Here, we tested whether acute oral exposure

Corticosterone reinforces motivation for drug-seeking in morphine-dependent rats in Morris maze performance

open access: yes, 2000
Corticosterone and morphine's effect on motivational intensity for drug-seeking was investigated. Rats were given intraperitoneal injections with morphine, corticosterone, morphine plus corticosterone immediately after trained without platform.
