Abstract
⺠We studied the effects of corticosterone in pons on some motor behaviors. ⺠Corticosterone intra-PnO increased the duration of tonic immobility in rats. ⺠Corticosterone intra-PnO increased the open-field motor activity of rats. ⺠The effects of corticosterone intra-PnO were blocked by MR or GR antagonists. ⺠Corticosterone released by stress can reach PnO to modulate tonic immobility.
