2006, Progress in Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :The HPA axis is generally found to be hyperactive in bulimia (Licinio et al., 1996; Monteleone et al., 1999; Cotrufo et al., 2000; Neudeck et al., 2001). Bingeing and vomiting in bulimic patients was associated with modest increases in cortisol secretion (Weltzin et al., 1991; Galderisi et al., 2003) and increased dehydroxyepiandrosterone (sulfate) (DHEA(S)) levels (Galderisi et al., 2003), whereas normal-weight bulimic women showed normal circadian ACTH and cortisol variations and levels (Vescovi et al., 1996). A more recent study showed elevated cortisol secretion following exacerbation of bulimic symptoms (Lester et al., 2003).
