Glucocorticoids and HPA axis regulation in the stress–obesity connection: A comprehensive overview of biological, physiological and behavioural dimensions

Clinical Obesity, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Chronic stress, characterized by increased long‐term exposure to the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol, is increasingly linked to obesity development. Still, various knowledge gaps persist, including on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. The aim of the current review is to provide the latest insights on the connection between stress and ...

Hypercortisolism: Causes, Consequences and Clinical Significance – A Review of Pathophysiology

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypercortisolism or Cushing syndrome is a heterogeneous clinical spectrum caused by chronic glucocorticoid excess, ranging from exogenous Cushing syndrome to rare endogenous aetiologies and the increasingly recognised entity of mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS). Physiological cortisol production is tightly regulated by the hypothalamic–

How Common Is Hypercortisolism in Patients With Hypertension? Risk Factors, Epidemiology, and Making a Diagnosis

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endogenous hypercortisolism (EHC) is an underrecognised and clinically significant contributor to hypertension, particularly resistant hypertension. Once viewed as a rare entity, EHC is now understood as a spectrum of cortisol excess associated with adverse cardiometabolic outcomes and target‐organ damage.

Hypercortisolism: An Under‐Recognised Pathway Linked to Multi‐System Complications

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The clinical understanding of hypercortisolism (HC) has evolved from a classic overt syndrome with florid Cushingoid features to a broader spectrum of disease that includes milder presentations, often referred to as mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS).

Is Hypercortisolism Treatable? Which Patients Should Be Treated and How—A Practical Guide for Clinicians

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To provide a practical guide on when to suspect endogenous hypercortisolism, how to use the overnight 1‐mg dexamethasone suppression test (DST) for targeted case‐finding, and which patients are most likely to benefit from treatment.
