Exogenous prenatal corticosterone exposure mimics the effects of prenatal stress on adult brain stress response systems and fear extinction behavior

BC Bingham, CSS Rani, A Frazer, R Strong… - …, 2013 - Elsevier
Exposure to early-life stress is a risk factor for the development of cognitive and emotional

Follicle-stimulating hormone induction of luteinizing hormone receptor in cultured rat granulosa cells: an examination of the need for steroids in the induction process

CSS Rani, AR Salhanick, DT Armstrong - Endocrinology, 1981 - academic.oup.com
The induction of LH receptors by FSH in cultured rat granulosa cells and the effects of ovarian
steroids on this process were examined. Granulosa cells were isolated from the ovaries of …

Identification of an activator protein-1-like sequence as the glucocorticoid response element in the rat tyrosine hydroxylase gene

CSS Rani, N Elango, S Wang, K Kobayashi… - Molecular …, 2009 - ASPET
Glucocorticoids (GCs) generally stimulate gene transcription via consensus glucocorticoid
