Cortisol is a hormone in the adrenal cortex that surges in response to the release of ACTH, another hormone produced by the pituitary gland. Cortisol levels are a good indicator of adrenal and pituitary function. Elevated cortisol levels can be a sign of several medical disorders.
Cortisol: Stress Hormone. Cortisol is a glucocorticoid hormone synthesized from cholesterol by enzymes of the cytochrome P450 family in the zona fasciculata, the middle area of the adrenal cortex (9). Regulated via the HPA axis, cortisol is the primary hormone responsible for the stress response. Expressed at the highest levels in the early morning, cortisolâs main function is to restore homeostasis following exposure to stress (10).
