文摘

Cortisol response to ACTH is affected by sex and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Response is increased in men but blunted in women with IBS compared to controls.

Glucocorticoid receptor α (GRα) mRNA is reduced in IBS and negatively correlates with ACTH response.

Low expression of GRα is associated with increased symptom severity in IBS.
