Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We planed to clarify the effect of intrauterine inflammation on the cortisol secretion and its circulatory response in premature lamb because the fetal endocrine potential to adapt the postnatal environment might have been already deteriorated by the inflammatory stress before birth. In consequence, we could store the plasma samples for 45 times of the corticotrophin releasing hormone test. Unfortunately, however, commercial kits for immunoassay of sheep AVP, ACTH and cortisol could not be available domestically during the study period. Instead, we have been developing the method of peptides and steroid profiling analysis using the LC-MS/MS.
