背景介绍：

皮质醇是肾上腺皮质分泌的主要糖皮质激素。皮质醇是生理上有效的血压维持和抗炎活动。它还参与钙的吸收、糖异生以及胃酸和胃蛋白酶的分泌。血皮质醇水平的测定可作为肾上腺功能的指标，对阿狄森氏病、库欣病、肾上腺增生及癌的鉴别诊断具有重要意义。
Cortisol is the most abundant circulating steroid and the major glucocorticoid secreted by the adrenal cortex. Cortisol is physiologically effective in blood pressure maintenance and anti-inflammatory activity. It is also involved in calcium absorption, gluconeogenesis as well as the secretion of gastric acid and pepsin. Measurement of blood cortisol levels can be used as an indicator of adrenal function and the differential diagnosis of Addison’s and Cushing’s diseases as well as adrenal hyperplasia and carcinoma.
