NCT ID: NCT02227420 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

Effects of IL-1 Beta on the HPA-axis in Obese Persons

CortIL
Start date: October 2014
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

In obese individuals cortisol production and secretion is increased but the underlying mechanism is not known. Obesity leads to a pathological activation of the innate immune system partly driven by tissue production of IL-1β. Furthermore, IL-1β is also known to stimulate the release of adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH). Therefore, the investigators hypothesise that in obese individuals tissue inflammation stimulates ACTH via IL-1β, thereby explaining the observed hypercortisolism.
