Abstract

An enhancement of stress reactivity of the hypophysial-adrenocortical system in response to emotional and physical influence was shown in rats with a low threshold of sensitivity to electrical current. This phenomenon was observed as a rise in the maximum level of blood corticosterone and acceleration of stressor hormonal response. In the high-threshold rats a decrease in sensitivity of the hypophysial adrenocortical system to the feedback signals was observed.
