From: Variations in maternal care alter corticosterone and 17beta-estradiol levels, estrous cycle and folliculogenesis and stimulate the expression of estrogen receptors alpha and beta in the ovaries of UCh rats

Figure 2

Hormonal profile of UCh mothers and offspring after variation of maternal care in the postpartum period. (A) Plasma corticosterone levels in the UCh mothers (ng/mL); (B) Plasma corticosterone levels in the UCh offspring (ng/mL); (C) Plasma FSH levels in the UCh offspring (ng/mL); (D) Plasma LH levels in the UCh offspring (ng/mL); (E) Plasma E2 levels in the UCh offspring (pg/mL) and (F) Plasma P4 levels in the UCh offspring (ng/mL). Values are expressed as means ± SEM. n = 10 animals/group. Student's t-test; * p < 0.05.
