Cortisol and somatization

Biological Psychology, 2000
Somatization symptoms are frequently associated with depression, anxiety, and feelings of distress. These features interact with the activity of the HPA-axis. Therefore we investigated relationships between somatization symptoms and cortisol. Seventy-seven participants were classified into three groups: somatization syndrome (at least eight physical ...

CORTISOL AND HYPERTENSION

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 1998
SUMMARY1. In humans, the hypertensive effects of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) infusion are reproduced by intravenous or oral Cortisol. Oral Cortisol increases blood pressure in a dose‐dependent fashion. At a dose of 80–200 mg/day, the peak increases in systolic pressure are of the order of 15mmHg.

Obesity and cortisol

Nutrition, 2000
Cortisol in obesity is a much-studied problem. Previous information indicates that cortisol secretion is elevated but that circulatory concentrations are normal or low, suggesting that peripheral disappearance rate is elevated. These studies have usually not taken into account the difference between central and peripheral types of obesity.

Cortisol and corticosterone independence in cortisol-dominant wildlife

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2012
Species have traditionally been defined as cortisol-dominant or corticosterone-dominant, depending on the glucocorticoid that is reported. To assess the degree of covariance versus independence between cortisol and corticosterone, 245 serum samples belonging to 219 individuals from 18 cortisol-dominant, non-domesticated species (6 mammalian orders ...

Reaction of cortisol and cortisol 21-aldehyde with pyridoxamine

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1962
Abstract A yellow product was isolated when pyridoxamine was heated with cupric ions and cortisol or other 17-hydroxy- or 17-deoxyketol steroids. Oxygen was necessary for the reaction. Copper, which could not be replaced by other metal ions, oxidized the 21-alcohol function of cortisol to the 21-aldehyde. When cortisol 21-aldehyde was substituted for

Cortisol, high cortisol diseases and anti-cortisol therapy

Psychoneuroendocrinology, 1997
Elevated cortisol is found in many diseases, including infectious, aging-related, depression and depression-associated conditions; even in some with no known origin, and no known therapy. While it was initially thought that 'high cortisol' is the result of these diseases, there is mounting evidence to the contrary, namely, that high cortisol actually ...

Cortisol and immunity

Medical Hypotheses, 1991
The relationship between adrenocortical function and immunity is a complex one. In addition to the well-known detrimental effects of large, pharmacologic dosages of glucocorticoids upon the immune process, there is impressive evidence that physiologic amounts of cortisol, the chief glucocorticoid normally produced by the human adrenal cortex, is ...
