Study 3: Effects of corticosterone implants on hypothalamic gene expression
Although anecdotal, it would appear the RU486 exposed wildtype animal cleared residual late gestation corticosterone following birth more effectively than did the Lifr -/- littermate.
Second, we have also shown that hypothalamic responses to insulin deficiency require elevation in corticosterone.
The mice were sacrificed toward the end of the light period at the end of the day in the metabolic cages (between 17:00 and 19:00 h) by decapitation after a brief exposure to carbon dioxide and trunk blood was collected; we have verified in pilot studies that this method of sacrifice does not increase plasma corticosterone above levels observed without carbon dioxide exposure.
