Maternal glucocorticoid treatment programs HPA regulation in adult offspring: sex-specific effects.
Pregnant guinea pigs were treated with dexamethasone (1 mg/kg) or vehicle on days 40--41, days 50--51, and days 60--61 of gestation. Adult offspring were split into two groups. Group 1 guinea pigs were catheterized, and the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis was tested in basal and activated states. Group 2 guinea pigs were euthanized with no further manipulation. In male offspring, prena...
متن کاملExpressions of Hippocampal Mineralocorticoid Receptor (MR) and Glucocorticoid Receptor (GR) in the Single-Prolonged Stress-Rats
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a stress-related mental disorder caused by traumatic experience. Single-prolonged stress (SPS) is one of the animal models proposed for PTSD. Rats exposed to SPS showed enhanced inhibition of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which has been reliably reproduced in patients with PTSD. Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) and glucocorticoid receptor ...
متن کاملSpatial performance and corticosteroid receptor status in the 21-day restraint stress paradigm.
Twenty-one days of restraint stress has been shown to affect hippocampal plasticity, neurogenesis, and spatial memory. Hippocampal glucocorticoid receptors (GR) and mineralocorticoid receptors (MR) are the main mediators of stress response and learning/memory processes. We studied the performance of male and female rats on a hippocampal-dependent spatial task after 21 days of restraint in relat...

The relation between periconceptional vaginal permicide use and sex ratio at birth, birth weight, and the frequency of congenital anomalies was examined in a cohort of 2,712 New York City obstetric patients, 149 of whom (5.5 per cent) became pregnant while using spermicides or had used spermicides before and after conception. Periconceptional spermicide use was not associated with any important...
متن کاملSite-specific regulation of corticosteroid and serotonin receptor subtype gene expression in the rat hippocampus following 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine: role of corticosterone and serotonin.
Abnormal interactions between serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) and glucocorticoids, notably in the hippocampus, may underpin neuroendocrine, affective and cognitive dysfunction in depression and ageing. Glucocorticoids act via intracellular glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors, whereas 5-hydroxytryptamine binds to a family of transmembrane sites; both cross- and auto-regulation have be...
