For decades, it was widely assumed that glucocorticoids (GCs) work solely through changes in gene expression to exert their physiological actions, a process that normally takes several hours to occur. However, recent evidence indicates that GCs might also act at the membrane through specific receptors to exert multiple rapid effects on various tissues and cells. GCs modulate hormone secretion, neuronal...
Recent ideas suggest that current immunocompetence may act as a constraint on behavioural and physiological decisions, where these risk imposing an additional burden on immune function. We tested this in the context of time budgeting and the secretion of the potentially immunodepressive hormones testosterone and corticosterone, by treating adult male CFLP laboratory mice with antithymocyte serum...
