The failure of the normal adaptive mechanisms to stress; the body doesn't maintain homeostasis

What is the Normal Chronic Stress Response

Limbic system stimulate hypothalamus; Hypothalamus release CRH. CRH stimulate anterior pituitary gland to release ACTH. ACTH stimulates adrenal cortex to release cortisol.

1. Decreased inflammatory response 2. Elevated plasma glucose levels 3. Elevated plasma amino acid concentrations 4. Lipolysis 5. Protein Catabolism
