ACTH1-24(1 mg/kg) administered to 5-7-day-old rats reduced their locomotor activity and did not alter blood levels of corticosterone. ACTH administration on postnatal days 12-14 increased corticosterone levels, but had no effect on locomotor activity. Thus, the behavioral effect of ACTH

Apnea, the temporary cessation of respiratory airflow, is a common cause of intermittent hypoxia (IH) in premature infants. We hypothesized that IH elicits a stress response and alters glucose homeostasis in the neonatal rat. Rat pups were studied on postnatal

Glucocorticoid stress hormones (GCs) are well known for being anti-inflammatory, but some reports suggest that GCs can also augment aspects of inflammation during acute brain injury. Because the GC receptor (GR) is ubiquitously expressed throughout the brain, it is difficult
