“…This paradigm resulted in a hyperactivity of hypothalamic-pituitaryadrenal (HPA) axis, as shown by the increase of serum corticosterone levels as well as adrenal weights and a decrease of body weight and sweet-water consumption, suggesting that this procedure induced a prolonged state of anxiety. Previous studies have shown that subordinate animals submitted to social stress have higher glucocorticoid levels, as indices of stress, related to their fearfulness (Chamove and Bowman, 1978). Adrenal weight is a classic sign widely used as a marker of stress reflecting the hyperactivity of the HPA axis (Coenen and Van Luijtelaar, 1985;Alario et al, 1987;Blanchard et al, 1998;Ruis et al, 1999).…”

“…Circulating glucocorticoid levels in both dominant and subordinate individuals are typically elevated during periods of hierarchy formation or social instability (14,24,25,(38)(39)(40)54). Moreover, in established social groups, measures of HPA function, such as plasma glucocorticoid concentrations or adrenal weight, are frequently greater in subordinate individuals than in their dominant counterparts [ (7,18,53,57), but see (15)].…”

“…Among female squirrel monkeys, for example, plasma cortisol concentrations are significantly elevated 1 h following formation of unisexual dyads, but do not differ from previous baseline values 24 h later and fall to below preceding baseline values after several days (41). More typically, however, social instability, resulting from formation of new social relationships or disruption of existing ones, has been found to stimulate pronounced increases in plasma glucocorticoid concentrations in both dominant and subordinate individuals, and such effects may persist for up to several weeks (14,24,25,(38)(39)(40). Moreover, in contrast to the present findings, these elevations in circulating glucocorticoids are often independent of engagement in aggression or wounding ( 11,25,51 ).…”

“…It is now known that reactivity is largely genetic in origin (Broadhurst, 1960;Chamove & Saunders, 1980), but its expression can be greatly modified by early experience (Denenberg, 1964;Chamove & Bowman, 1978). One of the most influential is early housing (Dawkins, 1980).…”
