Differences in corticosterone binding by regions of the central nervous system in normal and diabetic rats
Cytosol binding of [3H]-corticosterone was studied in the anterior pituitary, hypothalamus, hippocampus and cerebral cortex from control and streptozotocin-diabetic male rats after adrenalectomy (ADX). Significant reductions in [3H]-corticosterone binding were observed in hypothalamus and hippocampu...
