Plasma ACTH (picograms per milliliter) and CORT (micrograms per deciliter) levels in 12-d-old pups, both under basal condition (NT) and 30 min after a saline injection (STRESS). Litters were deprived for 24 hr on P11, during which time they were either left undisturbed (ISO), stroked (STROK), or stroked and episodically fed (F & S) (n = 10–12 per group). NDEP animals served as controls. *p < 0.05, significant from NDEP counterparts.
