Abstract：
:Three sets of experiments have been conducted that suggest that adrenal glucocorticoids play a role in the long-term control of intake and in dietary preferences. First, obesity is dependent upon glucocorticoid-modulated metabolic pathways. Surgical or pharmacological manipulations in obese animals that eliminate or diminish corticosterone activity result in levels of intake, meal patterns, macronutrient self-selection and weight gain that revert to levels seen in lean controls. Glucocorticoid replacement of adrenalectomized genetically obese Zucker rats restores the phenotypic expression of the obese rat's genetic heritage: increased weight gain, increased fat and total daily caloric intake and adiposity are restored in a dose-dependent fashion. Second, the increased fat intake observed subsequent to fasting in Sprague-Dawley rats is correlated with an increase in circulating corticosterone. Adrenalectomy blocks the fat specific refeeding response, and corticosterone treatment of adrenalectomized rats restores the increase in fat, carbohydrate and protein observed during refeeding. Third, humans suffering from Cushing's Disease have an increased preference for dietary fat. Weight-matched but disease-free obese controls show only slight increases in fat preference when compared to normal weight controls.
