Basal state
Data collated from Diurnal variations in the content of preprocorticotropin-releasing hormone messenger ribonucleic acids in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus of rats of both sexes as measured by in situ hybridization, authors Watts, A.G. & Swanson, L.W., published in Endocrinology.

Protocol details: Experiment Acronym: expfemale (the acronym was inserted by collator)
Sex: Female
Manipulated structure: Ovary; Associated annotation: To avoid the influence of the estrous cycle, female rats were bilaterally ovariectomized ...and 14-21 days later given a sc pellet containing 0.5 mg 17beta-estradiol. A group of male rat whith adrenalectomy were used as controls..
