Target Information

When under stress, avian corticosteroid-binding globulins modulate the free and bound fractions of plasma corticosterone (CORT), which is the primary glucocorticoid in birds. This modulation enables them to mediate the physiological and behavioral responses that are fundamental for balancing the trade-off of energetic investment in reproduction, immunity, growth, metabolism, and survival. These responses include adaptations to extreme high-elevation or high-latitude environments.

Target/Biomarker Avian Cort

Target Synonym Corticosrone
