Abstract:
Serum cortisol levels during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTY) were measured in subjects of type 2 diabetic pedigrees. The results showed that cortisol levels during OGTF were higher in type 2 diabetic patients than those in non-diabetic first-degree relatives and normal controls. Fasting cortisol level was positively correlated with fasting plasma glucose level in type 2 diabetic pedigree members. These results suggest that the dysregulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis may coexist in type 2 diabetic patients.
