- W3029091918 abstract "There is increasing interest in using nonblood measures of glucocorticoids to assess the physiological response to chronic stress conditions. In sheep, cortisol has been measured in various matrices including saliva, feces, and wool, but comprehensive studies of the relationship between plasma concentrations of cortisol and concentrations in these nonblood matrices are lacking. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that administration of cortisol to sheep would result in elevated concentrations of cortisol in blood, saliva, feces, and wool. Merino ewes were administered with saline or 2 mg/kg BW/d hydrocortisone acetate (HCA) by intramuscular (i.m.) injection for 28 d. This treatment was imposed to mimic circulating cortisol concentrations experienced during periods of chronic stress. Cortisol and cortisone were directly measured in plasma, saliva, and wool before, during, and after treatment with saline or HCA. A 14-d pre-treatment and a 14-d post-treatment period were used to measure time taken for glucocorticoid concentrations in each of the matrices to return to baseline levels. Cortisol was also measured in feces before, during, and after treatment. Wool growth was also measured. Before treatment, there was no difference in the concentration of cortisol or cortisone in plasma, saliva, feces, or wool in animals treated with saline or HCA. In contrast, treatment with HCA increased (P < 0.05) concentrations of both cortisol and cortisone in plasma, saliva, and wool and of cortisol in feces. In plasma, cortisol concentrations were higher than cortisone (P < 0.05), whereas saliva cortisol and cortisone concentrations did not differ significantly. In wool, the concentration of cortisone was about 19-fold higher than that of cortisol during treatment and post-treatment periods. Treatment with HCA inhibited wool growth. These results demonstrate that an increase in glucocorticoids in the blood of sheep is reflected in increases in saliva (after 7 d of treatment), feces (21 d), and wool (14 d). Therefore, measures of glucocorticoids in these matrices may provide a measure of activation of the adrenal glands over time in sheep, thereby providing a retrospective indicator of chronic stress. With respect to wool, it appears that cortisol is predominantly metabolized to cortisone in the skin or wool follicle and is stored as cortisone. Therefore wool cortisone may also provide an important measure in quantifiying chronic stress in sheep." @default.
