Cortisol circadian rhythm and insulin resistance in muscle: effect of dosing and timing of hydrocortisone exposure on insulin sensitivity in synchronized muscle cells.

Conclusions: The current study demonstrated that is late-in-the-day cortisol exposure that modulates insulin sensitivity-related genes expression and intracellular insulin signaling in skeletal muscle cells.
