Fig 1
Representative profiles of immunoreactive 11β-hydroxyetiocholanolone (black circles) and CCST (white triangles) in two female (top) and male (bottom) meerkats after administration of ACTH at time 0.
Data points before time 0 represent median ± SE concentrations (μg/g) of pre-treatment samples collected 5–8 days before ACTH injection.
