Figure 3. Glucocorticoid receptor (GR), mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (11β-HSD1 and 11β-HSD2) mRNA levels in the hypothalamus, hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, liver and kidney under non-stress conditions (n = 4).

Figure 3

A. GR mRNA – the effect of age was statistically significant on all studied area (p<0.01). B. MR mRNA – the effect of age was significant on all studied area (p<0.01). C. 11β-HSD1 mRNA – the effect of age was statistically significant in the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex and kidney (p<0.01). D. 11β-HSD2 mRNA – the effect of age was significant in the hypothalamus, hippocampus and kidney (p<0.01). Abbreviations: Ht: Hypothalamus; Hc: Hippocampus; Pc: Prefrontal cortex; Lr: Liver; Kd: Kidney; ##p<0.01 vs. appropriate adult group.
