Typical plasma cortisol levels (around 165 nM) would provide only half the stimulation in the ancestral receptors, but stress-induced levels (typically around 1000 nM) would activate the S106P receptor to the same extent as in the ancestral receptors receptors.

In fish, typical DOC plasma concentrations range from 6 nM to 10 nM (and higher under stimulation), which would be more than adequate to stimulate the S106P receptors to the levels seen in the ancestral receptor (10 nM DOC produces a 20 fold activation of the S106P receptor, which is the maximal activation of the ancestral receptor).
