Abstract excerpt
Strains A/J and C57BL/6J (B6) differ in susceptibility to many neoplasms and infectious agents, with B6 mice generally being more resistant. Glucocorticoids protect against some of these pathologies. We examined the distribution of adrenocortical corticosterone (CS), the major endogenous glucocor...
