Peak and trough corticosterone appear to normalize within 3 days after a 12 h phase shift. (AD) show the absolute corticosterone values and the comparison between the BL condition and DS condition for all four groups (A: group 1/ ZT2 BL condition and ZT2 DS condition; B: group 1/ ZT14 BL condition and ZT14 DS condition; C: group 2/ ZT2 BL condition and ZT14 DS condition; D: group 2/ ZT14 BL condition and ZT2 DS condition. E and F show the combined results of group 1 and 2 for the BL condition (E) and the DS condition (F). The data are presented as the mean ± SEM, n = 8 (for group 1), n = 4–5 (for group 2); * P < 0.05, *** P < 0.001.
