General description

Corticosterone (Cort) is a glucocorticoid hormone. It is also the principal hormone that mediates stress responses in birds. It is the primary adrenal cortical steroid in rat plasma. The influence of maternal Cort exposure on the developing placenta has been studied in a mouse model.

Application

Corticosterone was used to study the adrenoceptor signaling in rats, lizards or in vitro. It was also used in immune suppression experiment.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Corticosterone is synthesized from cholesterol in the adrenal cortex that activates both mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid receptors. The role of corticosterones is vital for reproductive processes including ovulation, lutenization, development of oocytes, parturition and lactation. The metabolism of corticosterone is modulated by the enzyme 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Preparation Note

Corticosterone is soluble in chloroform and ethanol.

Corticosterone was administered to normal and bilaterally adrenalectomized rats (250-300 g), and hormonal regulation of brain calbindin-D28k (CaBP28k) levels was investigated by radioimmunoassay for CaBP28k protein and by slot and Northern blot analyses for CaBP28k mRNA. The specificity of the

The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) and glucocorticoid receptor are ligand-activated transcription factors that have important physiological and pathophysiological actions in a broad range of cell types including monocytes and macrophages. While the glucocorticoids cortisol and corticosterone have well-described anti-inflammatory actions on
