Early Life Glucocorticoid Exposure Modulates Immune Function in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) Larvae

In this study we have assessed the effects of increased cortisol levels during early embryonic development on immune function in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae. Fertilized eggs were exposed to either a cortisol-containing, a dexamethasone-containing (to stimulate the glucocorticoid receptor selectiv...
