The direct response of the gonads to cues of stress in a temperate songbird species is season-dependent. [PDF]
, 2013 The gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) system in the hypothalamus is often considered the final point in integration of environmental cues as they pertain to the reproductive axis.

Biomedicines, 2022 Stress, as a physiological response, is a major factor that affects several processes, including reproductive functions. The main hormonal players of stress are cortisol (humans) and corticosterone (rodents).

Corticosterone selectively decreases humoral immunity in female eiders during incubation
, 2007 Immunity is hypothesized to share limited resources with other physiological functions and this may partly account for the fitness costs of reproduction.

Chronic Early-life Stress in Rat Pups Alters Basal Corticosterone, Intestinal Permeability, and Fecal Microbiota at Weaning: Influence of Sex. [PDF]
, 2017 Background/aimsWistar rat dams exposed to limited nesting stress (LNS) from post-natal days (PND) 2 to 10 display erratic maternal behavior, and their pups show delayed maturation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and impaired epithelial barrier

Glucocorticoids rapidly inhibit oxytocin-stimulated adrenocorticotropin release from rat anterior pituitary cells, without modifying intracellular calcium transients [PDF]
, 1993 Glucocorticoid hormones suppress the secretion of ACTH evoked by secretagogues such as CRF and arginine vasopressin. In this study, we investigated the effects of glucocorticoids on ACTH release induced by oxytocin (OT) and on intracellular free calcium ...

Stachyose Alleviates Corticosterone-Induced Long-Term Potentiation Impairment via the Gut–Brain Axis
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022 Stress can induce learning and memory impairment; corticosterone is often used to study the effects and mechanisms of stress in animal models. Long-term potentiation (LTP) has been widely used for tackling the mechanisms of memory.

Augmented Hypothalamic Corticotrophin-Releasing Hormone mRNA and Corticosterone Responses to Stress in Adult Rats Exposed to Perinatal Hypoxia [PDF]
, 2007 Stressful events before or just after parturition alter the subsequent phenotypical response to stress in a general process termed programming. Hypoxia during the period before and during parturition, and in the postnatal period, is one of the most ...

Role of Corticosterone in Lipid Metabolism in Broiler Chick White Adipose Tissue
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2022 Excessive accumulation of body fat in broiler chickens has become a serious problem in the poultry industry. However, the molecular mechanism of triglyceride accumulation in chicken white adipose tissue (WAT) has not been elucidated.

Corticosterone in Commercial Broilers
Journal of Applied Poultry Research, 2005 Abstract The welfare of commercially produced broilers is of concern to producers and consumers. When birds are reared under stressful conditions they often exhibit several adaptive responses. The major response is secretion of the stress hormone, corticosterone (CS), by the adrenal glands.
