Attenuation effects of prenatal stress by early postnatal stimulation in different research models
(MedCrave, 2018-09)
Prenatal stress alters the pattern of corticoid secretion and affects transplacentally the fetus hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) in different animal models. Early postnatal stimulation or handling results in an ...
Brain alterations in autoimmune and pharmacological models of diabetes mellitus: focus on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis disturbances
(Karger, 2008-07-29)
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is linked to an 'encephalopathy' explained by some features common to the aging process, degenerative and functional disorders of the central nervous system. In the present study we describe a manifest ...
Nature of changes in adrenocortical function in chronic hyperleptinemic female rats
(Humana Press Inc., 2004-12)
Neonatal treatment of rats with monosodium L-glutamate, which destroys hypothalamic arcuate nucleus neuronal bodies, induces several metabolic abnormalities; as a result, rats develop a phenotype of pseudoobesity. This ...
Temporal dynamic of adrenocortical and gonadal photo-responsiveness in male Japanese quail exposed to short days
(Elsevier Inc, 2014-07)
The study evaluated whether different short-term endocrine testicular and adrenocortical responses to short photoperiod exposure can persist over time and particularly when birds exhibit spontaneous cloacal gland recovery. ...
Regulation of the glucocorticoid response to stress-related disorders by the Hsp90-binding immunophilin FKBP51
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-07)
Immunophilin is the collective name given to a family of proteins that bind immunosuppressive drugs: Some immunophilins are Hsp90-binding cochaperones that affect steroid receptor function. Mood and anxiety disorders are ...
Cloacal gland, endocrine testicular, and adrenocortical photoresponsiveness in male Japanese quail exposed to short days
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2013-01)
Photoperiod is the most important “noise-free” seasonal environmental cue for synchronizing physiological states (such as reproductive activity) in birds. However, in photoperiodic birds such as Japanese quail, the effect ...
Assessment of adrenocortical activity and behavior of the collared anteater (Tamandua tetradactyla) in response to food-based environmental enrichment
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2013-12)
One of the current standard approaches to the study of animal welfare is measuring hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal activity, frequently in association with behavioral assessment. We studied the effects of food-based ...
Salivary cortisol as an indicator of adrenocortical function in healthy infants, using massage therapy
(Associação Paulista de Medicina - APM, 2005-11-01)
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: The evaluation of adrenocortical function with the use of therapeutic massage has been little studied in Brazil. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the salivary cortisol levels before and after ...
