1 This study presents the reactions of adrenocorticosteroids (cortisol and aldosterone) and sex steroids [testosterone, androstenedione, and dehydroepiandrosterone and its sulfate (DHAS)] 1) to a dexamethasone (Dex) treatment, which is expected to lower steroid levels via the ACTH blockade, and 2) to an exercise bout at maximal O(2) consumption, which is expected to increase steroid production via ACTH stimulation. Dehydroepiandrosterone proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
