Cortisol is a glucocorticoid hormone secreted by zona fasciculata of the adrenal cortex. The hormone mainly regulates glucose levels in the body. It is also used as an immunosuppressant in autoimmune diseases and organ transplants as it suppresses the immune system. It is used as an anti-inflammatory drug too, as it prevents inflammation.
