Serum CORT concentrations in Wistar rats under different types of stress: acute (A), CPSI (C) and combined (CA)
Type of stress | Ctrl | A | C | CA |
---|---|---|---|---|
CORT (ng/ml) | 127.08 ± 57.56 | 635.18 ± 100.20* | 51.11 ± 33.41* | 610.22 ± 115.32*# |
Data are presented as mean ± SD (*p < 0.05, control vs. stress; # p < 0.05, CPSI vs. combined stress—judged by Mann–Whitney non-parametric test)
