Reduced level of cellular glucocorticoid receptors in patients with anorexia nervosa.

K Kontula, L C Andersson, M Huttunen, R Pelkonen.   

Abstract

Specific glucocorticoid receptors were measured in circulating mononuclear leukocytes from 12 patients with anorexia nervosa and 21 healthy control subjects. Cells from patients were found to contain a significantly (p less than 0.01) lower level of glucocorticoid receptor (3830 +/- 210 sites/cell, mean +/- SE) than those from controls (4930 +/- 250 sites/cell). A partial glucocorticoid receptor defect may well explain the abnormal cortisol metabolism and glucocorticoid resistance commonly found in patients with anorexia nervosa.
