Corticosterone effects on corticotropin-releasing hormone mRNA in the central nucleus of the amygdala and the parvocellular region of the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus
Open accessAbstract
Using in situ hybridization histochemistry, we report differential expression of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) mRNA in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CEA) and the parvocellular region of the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) following systemic treatment with corticosterone (CORT) in adrenally-intact rats. Both injection of low (1 mg/kg/day) and high (5 mg/day) CORT reduced CRH mRNA expression in the PVN in a dose-dependent manner, although it returned to normal at the low dose by 14 days. By contrast, the high dose of CORT increased CRH mRNA transiently in the CEA at 4 days, although the low dose of CORT decreased it at 14 days. In a second experiment, we implanted a slowly-releasing CORT pellet for 2 weeks (200 mg, 60 day release) subcutaneously. This treatment produced an elevation of CRH mRNA in the CEA both at 1 and 2 weeks, whereas CRH mRNA in the PVN was decreased to a large extent as seen in the high CORT group of the first experiment. These results suggest that glucocorticoids can facilitate CRH mRNA expression in the CEA, a site implicated in anxiety and fear, while restraining the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis as indicated by the reduction in CRH mRNA in the PVN.

Chronic corticosterone administration upregulates CRF mRNA levels in lateral central amygdala and lateral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis neurons and interacts synergistically with CRF to increase startle amplitude.
“previous studies have shown that chronic corticosterone administration upregulates the CRF mRNA level in CeAL and BNSTL neurons (Liu et al, 2004; Makino et al, 1994a, b; Shepard et al, 2000; Swanson and Simmons, 1989; Watts and Sanchez-Watts, 1995) and interacts synergistically with CRF to increase startle amplitude (Lee et al, 1994).”
From Phasic vs Sustained Fear in Rats and Humans: Role of the Extended Amygdala in Fear vs Anxiety (2010) · cites this paper as Makino et al, 1994a, b
The Abstract reports that sustained corticosterone treatment elevated CRH mRNA in the central nucleus of the amygdala, supporting the core finding. The Methods specify measurements in the central amygdala and hypothalamic PVN, not the lateral central-amygdala subdivision or lateral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis. The startle-amplitude finding is attached to Lee et al. (1994), not to this source. (LLM, conf=0.90)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
