Corticosterone is the principle glucocorticoid secreted by the adrenal cortices of mice and rats. Secretion of corticosterone in these species is modulated by a complex negative feedback mechanism involving the central nervous system, hypothalamus, pituitary, and adrenals. ACTH released from the pituitary augments adrenal secretion of corticosterone while falling levels of corticosterone are associated with rising levels of ACTH. In both mice and rats there is a circadian rhythm of corticosterone release with the highest concentrations being observed between 1600 and 2200 hours in a normal laboratory environment.
Research area interests inslcude stress studies, circadian rhythm, endocrinology, metabolic diseases, obesity, and diabetes.
1. What percentage of your IgE allergy testing panel consists of molecular allergens rather than allergen extracts? The ALEX2 IgE allergen panel consists of 117 extracts and 183 molecular allergens. This represents the largest panel of molecular allergens on the market, including 50 unique...
Cases of food and environmental allergies have been increasing over the last decade. While conservative estimates suggest IgE-mediated allergy affects 6-8% of children and 2-3% of adults, some estimates are as high as 30%.3, 2 Symptoms can range from mild to severe and include itching, hives,...
Food sensitivity or food intolerance involves a non-allergic response to a food or food additive. In a recent on-line survey conducted in the U.S., 24% of adults aged 18 to 79 reported a food intolerance. While a food allergy is typically mediated by IgE antibodies, adverse reactions to food...
