Cortisol and corticosterone exhibit different seasonal variation and responses to acute stress and captivity in tuco-tucos ( Ctenomys talarum )

Research highlights ► Contrasting responses to acute stress of cortisol and corticosterone. ► Contrasting seasonal variation patterns of cortisol and corticosterone. ► Contrasting responses to captivity of cortisol and corticosterone. ► Use of leukocyte profiles to discriminate between basal and str...
