1. Aldosterone and corticosterone share the first part of their biosynthetic pathway. 2. Aldosterone and corticosterone share the first part of their biosynthetic pathways. 3. The protein blocks ?-MSH-induced secretion of corticosterone . 4. They are also producing more corticosterone , a hormone associated with stress. 5. The hormone known as corticosterone is activated by the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis. 6. With respect to recognition and long term memories, corticosterone has variable effects. 7. Corticosterone levels in species measure the stress that they face in their populations.8. It generates cortisol from 11-deoxycortisol and corticosterone from 11-deoxycorticosterone. 9. Corticosterone is very low in October to November, then peaks in January.10. This reduced anxiety and stress-induced corticosterone secretion at a systemic level.
