Interaction of testosterone, corticosterone and corticosterone binding globulin in the white-throated sparrow (Zonotrichia albicollis).
Plasma binding globulins bind steroid hormones and are thought to regulate hormone access to tissues. Mammals have both sex steroid binding globulin (SSBG) and corticosteroid binding globulin (CBG). Birds, however, have no detectable SSBG, leading to the early conclusion that birds have no plasma regulation of sex steroids. CBG, however, can bind androgens with relatively high affinity. In bird...
متن کاملThe Effect of Acute Corticosterone Administration on Retrieval of Remote and Recent Memory in the Rat
Background and Objective: It is well known that stress and glucocorticoid, modulate memory processing, though the result is completely dependent on the time of stress induction. This study investigated the effect of acute corticosterone administration on memory retrieval of recent and remote memory in a 4 trials/day (low- intensity learning) or 8 trials/ day (high- intensity learning) Morris wa...
متن کاملShort-term fasting affects locomotor activity, corticosterone, and corticosterone binding globulin in a migratory songbird.
Unpredictable events such as severe storms lead to an increase in circulating corticosterone (CORT) in breeding birds. This increase is often accompanied by elevations in foraging and irruptive behavior. We were interested in determining if acute food restriction (such as might occur during inclement weather) is a sufficient cue to elicit an increase in locomotor activity, increase CORT secreti...
متن کاملEffects of corticosterone pellets on baseline and stress-induced corticosterone and corticosteroid-binding-globulin.
Exogenous administration of glucocorticoids is a widely used and efficient tool to investigate the effects of elevated concentrations of these hormones in field studies. Because the effects of corticosterone are dose and duration-dependent, the exact course of plasma corticosterone levels after exogenous administration needs to be known. We tested the performance of self-degradable corticostero...
متن کاملHow acute is the acute stress response? Baseline corticosterone and corticosteroid-binding globulin levels change 24h after an acute stressor in Japanese quail.
Changes in plasma corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) capacity can alter free plasma concentration and tissue availability of glucocorticoids (GC) and hence alter the organismal response to stress. However, CBG change in response to stress has not been extensively studied. While it is clear that chronic stress can causes CBG decline and in some species acute stressors can reduce CBG during th...
