“…Cortisol reduces peripheral glucose utilisation by an anti-insulin effect. Glucocorticoids inhibit the recruitment of neutrophils and monocyte-macrophages into the area of inflammation [28] [29] and also have well-described anti-inflammatory actions, mediated by a decrease in the production of inflammatory mediators such as leukotrienes and prostaglandins [30]. In addition, there is immunoregulatory feedback between the glucocorticoid hormones and interleukin-6 (IL-6); the production and action of IL-6 is inhibited by ACTH and cortisol [31].…”

“…Em relação à supressão imunológica, não se sabe muito a respeito, mas sugere-se que o hipercortisolismo inibiria a resposta auto-imune contra antíge-nos produzidos por tecidos lesados 33 ; o achado de que corticóides suprimem reação de leucócitos autólogos sem afetar a reação alogênica é compatí-vel com essa hipótese 32 .…”
