A Radioimmunoassay for Human Plasma Corticosterone
A radioimmunoassay for human plasma corticosterone has been developed. Antiserum against corticosterone was produced in rabbits immunized with corticosterone-21-hemisuccinate conjugated to bovine serum albumin. The antiserum cross-reacted with progesterone, DOC and dehydrocorticosterone more than 20%. After the extraction with ether, and the separation

ABSTRACT The environmental conditions organisms experience during early development can have powerful and sustained effects on morphology, physiology, behaviour, and performance. Such developmental effects can influence reproductive success, survival, and life‐history strategies and can be transmitted across generations (i.e.

We previously reported that the citrus flavonoid 3,5,6,7,8,3′,4′-heptamethoxyflavone (HMF) increased the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the hippocampus of a transient global ischemia mouse model.

Corticosterone in Lymphoma-Bearing Rats.
SummaryCorticosterone in plasma and urine was determined by spectrofluorometry in sulfuric acid and by direct spectrophotometry in ethanol. Plasma levels and urinary excretion of corticosterone were elevated in rats with subcutaneous lymphomas. The high plasma concentration of corticosterone in these rats may help to explain the reduction in splenic ...

Perinatal Changes in Liver Corticosterone, Serum Insulain and Plasma Glucagon and Corticosterone in the Rat [PDF]
This report describes some hormonal changes occuring in the rat during the last 3 days of gestation and the first 6 h after surgical deliversy on days 20–22uu ofgestation. In the foetus, the concentration of glucagon increased 2‐fold and that of insulin decreaed from 4.7 to 3.5 ng/ml between days 21 and 22. Consequently the insulin/glucagon molar ratio

Abstract Background and aims The heart is a metabolic organ rich in mitochondria. The failing heart reprograms to utilize different energy substrates, which increase its oxygen consumption. These adaptive changes contribute to increased oxidative stress.

Corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) is the specific carrier of circulating glucocorticoids, but evidence suggests that it also plays an active role in modulating tissue glucocorticoid activity. CBG polymorphisms affecting its expression or affinity for

Measurement of corticosterone in mice: a protocol for a mapping review [PDF]
Severity assessment for experiments conducted with laboratory animals is still based mainly on subjective evaluations; evidence-based methods are scarce. Objective measures, amongst which determination of the concentrations of stress hormones, can be used to aid severity assessment.
