Application

Corticosterone: HBC complex has been used:
  • in the intravenous and intraperitoneal administration of corticosterone to rats to test its effect on glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid activity
  • to induce acute stress in mice
  • in Pulsatile treatment in mice to test its effect on clock gene period 1 transcription

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

The complex of corticosterone with 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HBC) improves water solubility. HBC is a carrier molecule. Corticosterone is a rodent-specific primary adrenal corticosteroid. It displays affinity towards the glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors.

Reconstitution

Corticosterone content: 66.7 mg/g. When 1 g of complex is reconstituted with water to a total volume of 2.12 mL, a solution which is 90.8 mM in corticosterone is obtained. Corticosterone itself is virtually insoluble in water.

Autres remarques

Preformed water-soluble complex of corticosterone and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin. Package size is total weight of both the corticosterone and the 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin. Corticosterone content: 66.7 mg/g

Cognitive challenges are often accompanied by a discharge of stress hormones, which in turn modulate multiple brain areas. Among these, the medial temporal lobe and the prefrontal cortex are critically involved in high-order cognitive functions such as learning, memory, and

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) displays a strong circadian rhythm in metabolic activity, but it is unclear how this rhythm is regulated. As circulating levels of corticosterone coincide with the rhythm of triglyceride-derived fatty acid (FA) uptake by BAT, we investigated

Diabetes and obesity are associated with perturbation of adrenal steroid hormones and impairment of hippocampal plasticity, but the question of whether these conditions recruit glucocorticoid-mediated molecular cascades that are comparable to other stressors has yet to be fully addressed. We

In vivo glucocorticoid (GC) secretion exhibits a distinctive ultradian rhythmicity. The lipophilic hormone can rapidly diffuse into cells, although only the pulse peak is of sufficient amplitude to activate the low affinity glucocorticoid receptor (GR). Discrete pulses readily access brain
