DescriptionMILLIPLEX MAP Rat Stress Hormone Magnetic Bead Panel - Endocrine Multiplex Assay
Background InformationStress is defined as the disruption of homeostasis through physical and/or psychological stimuli (stressors). Physiologically the neuroendocrine system, which includes the hypothalamus, pituitary and adrenal glands, plays a critical role in response to stress. Activated by corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and arginine-vasopressin (AV), the pituitary gland releases ACTH which results in the secretion of cortisol / corticosterone and other glucocorticoids from the adrenal glands. These corticoids involve the whole body in the stress response and are involved in the termination of the stress response by a negative feedback loop to the hypothalamus. Also, corticosterone and melatonin are important in the regulation of the sleep-wake cycle.
