Sponsor's own description

This proposal will evaluate the glucocorticoid mediated changes in body fat distribution and metabolism that occur in patients with Cushing's disease. The objective is to identify the mechanisms that influence both the accumulation of lipodystrophic fat and also the changes in energy expenditure and metabolism that accompany them. The study is designed to determine if the high cortisol and AgRP levels in the blood of people living with Cushing's syndrome, either from taking steroid medications or from tumors, impact body fat and metabolism by turning off brown fat, which is a type of fat that increases one's metabolism.
