FIGURE 2.

Expression of glucocorticoid effector sgk1 gene expression in male and female rats 1-h or 24-h post injection expressed as fold change versus naïve controls. (A) Sgk1 expression in HPC of ci-stress male rats versus controls 1-h after injection (n = 6 for each condition). (B) Sgk1 expression in HPC of ci-stress female rats versus controls 1-h after injection (n = 6 for each condition). (C) Sgk1 expression in HPC of male rats 24 h after injection (n = 4 for each condition). All values are presented as a fold change from stress control animals injected with saline. (**p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 two-way ANOVA with Tukey post-test on ΔCt values).
