The effect of acute exercise on plasma corticosterone in the ovariectomized rat
Acta Physiologica Polonica
|July 1, 1975
Abstract:
Levels of plasma corticosterone were determined by a fluorometric method in female rats, subjected to acute treadmill exercise. It was found that physical exercise causes a twofold rise in the plasma corticosterone concentration. This increase was slightly lower in the ovariectomized animals. Duration of the effort until exhaustion varied with age und hormonal status of the animals.
