ABSTRACT
A high-affinity corticosteroid-binding protein (CBG) roughly resembling a transcortin-type protein is present in badger plasma. Plasma CBG, corticosteroid and progesterone (P) concentrations were measured in relation to delayed implantation, true progestation and gestation. Two significant CBG increases were observed during pregnancy. The first, in the second half of embryonic diapause coincides with an increase in plasma corticosteroid concentration and the second, during true progestation and gestation, with an increase in P concentration. Relationship of CBG increases with pregnancy in badger are discussed.
