GJ Kant, T Eggleston, L Landman-Roberts… - Pharmacology …, 1985 - Elsevier
Rats were exposed to 15 min of restraint or footshock or forced running in an activity wheel
once a day for 10 days. Control groups were handled only. On the 11th day, rats from each
stressor group and controls were exposed to 15 min of one stressor in a crossed design
such that all combinations of one chronic stressor and one acute stressor exposure on the
11th day and plasma corticosterone and prolactin and pituitary cyclic AMP levels were
determined. There were no measured differences in these stress indices among groups of …
