Abstract

Recent advancements in stress physiology, driven by the relevance of the stress response in animal welfare and conservation, have focused on alternative techniques beyond blood sampling for measuring glucocorticoids (GC). While blood samples have been traditionally used, practical and ethical concerns have spurred exploration into minimally invasive media like saliva, feces, milk, hair, and feathers. This review addresses the dearth of research on reptile endocrinology, offering insights into measuring GC or their metabolites in reptiles through various biological tissues. It underscores the importance of considering temporal dynamics in stress response evaluation and advocates for further exploration of alternative tools to enhance our understanding of reptilian stress responses.

糖皮质激素的无创测量:爬行动物的视角
由于应激反应与动物福利和保护的相关性,应激生理学的最新进展集中在血液采样以外的其他测量糖皮质激素(GC)的技术上。虽然血液样本一直是传统的使用方法,但出于对实际和伦理的考虑,人们开始探索唾液、粪便、乳汁、毛发和羽毛等微创介质。这篇综述探讨了爬行动物内分泌学研究的不足,为通过各种生物组织测量爬行动物体内的 GC 或其代谢物提供了见解。它强调了在应激反应评估中考虑时间动态的重要性,并提倡进一步探索替代工具,以加深我们对爬行动物应激反应的了解。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Zoology publishes high-quality research papers that are original and are of broad interest. The Editors seek studies that are hypothesis-driven and interdisciplinary in nature. Papers on animal behaviour, ecology, physiology, anatomy, developmental biology, evolution, systematics, genetics and genomics will be considered; research that explores the interface between these disciplines is strongly encouraged. Studies dealing with geographically and/or taxonomically restricted topics should test general hypotheses, describe novel findings or have broad implications. The Journal of Zoology aims to maintain an effective but fair peer-review process that recognises research quality as a combination of the relevance, approach and execution of a research study.
