Glucocorticoid Receptor‐mediated Lipolysis Increases following Chronic Adrenocorticotropin Infusion in Northern Elephant Seals Pups through its Imperative Interaction with Heat Shock 90 Chaperone Protein
Northern elephant seal (NES) pups experience a prolonged 2–3 month fasting period and rely primarily on the oxidation of fatty acids to meet its energetic needs. Heat shock 90 chaperone protein (HSP90) is a fundamental part of the glucocorticoid‐cortisol (GR) complex, inducing an up regulation in GR...
