Effect of genotype on Mc2R and Hsd1 gene expression in the adrenal. Mice were restrained for 20 min (0–20 min; striped bar). There was no effect of genotype on Hsd1 expression in the adrenal. However, Mc2R expression increased in the adrenal immediately following restraint in Per2−/− mice, but not in WT mice. *p < 0.05 WT vs. respective Per2−/− time point. (n = 5–8 animals per group)
