On April 7, Colossal Biosciences, a biotech company founded in Dallas in 2021 with the goal of “de-extincting” animals, announced it had brought back the dire wolf, a creature last seen in ...

In a new study, researchers have found that mice can instinctively exhibit ... indicated by elevated blood corticosterone levels. In response, the observer mouse engaged in allogrooming and ...

Conversely, when we activated the fullness neurons in fasted mice, the monocyte levels returned close ... the release of a stress hormone called corticosterone (similar to cortisol in humans).

Restraint stress led to a significant rise in corticosterone levels, which remained high for over one hour. As the researchers continued to expose the mice to restraint stress, corticosterone ...

The stressed mice had elevated levels of corticosterone (CORT) in their blood, and the researchers next tested whether corticosterone itself could impact memory formation. They showed that mice ...

Because the stressed mice had elevated levels of corticosterone in their blood, the researchers next tested whether corticosterone itself could impact memory formation. They showed that mice that ...

Credit: SciTechDaily.com Acute stress has been shown to prevent mice from forming specific memories, instead leading to more generalized memories encoded by a larger number of neurons. This phenomenon ...

In studying these mice, they found that this microbiota depletion affected the daily rhythm of corticosterone levels in the mice’s plasma. The human equivalent of corticosterone is cortisol ...

Gut microbiota, particularly Lactobacillus species like Limosilactobacillus reuteri, influence daily variations in corticosterone levels. In GF and ABX mice, the timing and intensity of ...
