| 21. | Corticosterone is converted to aldosterone by aldosterone synthase, found only in the mitochondria of glomerulosa cells.
|
| 22. | Rats that have been prenatally stressed have elevated basal levels and abnormal circadian rhythm of corticosterone as adults.
|
| 23. | It also catalyzes the conversion of 11-deoxycorticosterone ( DOC ) to corticosterone in the mineralocorticoid pathway.
|
| 24. | Exposure to tourism affects marine iguanas, and corticosterone levels can predict their survival during El Ni�o events.
|
| 25. | In experiments allowing newts to be exposed to nonylphenol, there was a decrease in corticosterone and aldosterone.
|
| 26. | In addition, the enzyme reduces and inactivates 17-deoxycorticosterone, the precursor of aldosterone and corticosterone.
|
| 27. | Blood levels of steroid hormones like corticosterone generally increase in times of stress, like famine or bad weather.
|
| 28. | As well it shows that the different brain regions differentially activate corticosterone, a hormone related to memory effects.
|
| 29. | :corticosterone + reduced adrenal ferredoxin + O 2 \ rightleftharpoons 18-hydroxycorticosterone + oxidized adrenal ferredoxin + H 2 O
|
| 30. | Also, other studies show levels of stress hormones such as corticosterone rise dramatically in these birds during and after a migration.
