Pituitary-adrenocortical adjustments to transport stress in horses with previous different handling and transport conditions [PDF]
Aim: The changes of the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis response to a long distance transportation results in increase of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol levels.
