Shaping the stress response: Interplay of palatable food choices, glucocorticoids, insulin and abdominal obesity
Abstract
Activity of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is regulated by a negative feedback loop that dampens central drive of the axis via the actions of the secreted glucocorticoids. Conversely, under conditions of chronic stress, glucocorticoids delivered centrally increase hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) expression and the response to restraint. However, HPA axis activity and PVN CRF mRNA expression under chronic stress conditions are often reduced, implying other indirect peripheral or extra-hypothalamic glucocorticoid actions. Glucocorticoids chronically increase palatable food intake, which increases abdominal fat depots and circulating insulin levels, both of which negatively correlate with PVN CRF mRNA expression and may in turn dampen the response to stress. Such an effect is dependent on food choices, rather than total calories ingested. Considering stress is omnipresent in the workplace, palatable food ingestion may represent a means to combat the feeling of stress which is ultimately maladaptive when unresolved.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
