Association between Higher Serum Cortisol Levels and Decreased Insulin Secretion in a General Population.

Association between Higher Serum Cortisol Levels and Decreased Insulin Secretion in a General Population.

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are well known to induce insulin resistance. However, the effect of GCs on insulin secretion has not been well characterized under physiological conditions in human. We here evaluated the effect of GCs on insulin secretion/ß-cell function precisely in a physiological condition....
