Sight of a Predator Induces a Corticosterone Stress Response and Generates Fear in an Amphibian
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 ...

Research progress on the mechanisms of pain empathy
This article is related to the graphical research progress of pain empathy, starting with the description of the pain matrix and mirror neurons. Based on the pain matrix and mirror neurons, pain empathy results from the combined action of brain regions such as the anterior cingulate cortex, insula, prefrontal cortex, and amygdala and regulatory ...

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 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).

A comprehensive review on adaptive plasticity and recovery mechanisms post‐acquired brain injury
This figure illustrates the dynamic process of neurogenesis following brain injury, focusing on the roles of neural stem and progenitor cells at the injury site. Key mechanisms include axonal sprouting, synaptogenesis, dendritic remodeling, and brain‐derived neurotrophic factor signaling via TrkB receptors.

Assessment of testicular corticosterone biosynthesis in adult male rats.
Corticosterone is synthesized in the adrenal glands and is circulated throughout the body to perform regulatory functions in various tissues. The testis is known to synthesize and secrete testosterone and other androgens.

Many populations of species belonging to the order Crocodilia are threatened due to illegal trafficking, indiscriminate hunting, and habitat loss and degradation affecting crocodilian health and parasitic load. Although several studies have revealed that crocodiles, caimans, and alligators are frequently infected by Hepatozoon spp., the results from ...
