Abstract: Disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) are drugs used in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) to control the disease and to limit joint damage and improve long‐term outcome. The last decade evidence has accumulated that suggests that low dosages of glucocorticoids are indeed able to control the disease and limit the destruction.

Glucocorticoids and Osteoporosis
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1994In summary, patients who will remain on glucocorticoids for more than a few weeks are clearly at risk for osteoporosis. A list of therapeutic strategies is provided in Table 2. While our therapy remains inadequate at this time, newer agents are on the horizon.

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1989
Despite the continuing debate about the risks and benefits of glucocorticoid, their central role in the therapeutic armamentarium remains undisputed. Studies continue to unravel the complexity of their biologic effects on gene transcription, and careful clinical observation refines their therapeutic use.

AbstractGlucocorticoids are one of the two main classes of hormones, along with mineralocorticoids, which are secreted from the adrenal cortex. Since the discovery of the anti‐inflammatory properties of the natural glucocorticoid hydrocortisone, a large number of artificial glucocorticoids have been synthesized to attempt to increase efficacy and ...

Glucocorticoid receptors are found in most mammalian tissues and have been studied in detail in a number of tissue culture systems. With cells that have not been exposed to steroids, the receptors are found in the cytoplasmic fraction from which they can be isolated and studied.

Glucocorticoids are the most effective anti-inflammatory treatment for allergic diseases, and inhaled glucocorticoids have now become the first-line treatment for asthma. Glucocorticoids were discovered in the 1940s as extracts of the adrenal cortex and this was followed by the isolation of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from pituitary gland ...

Since the last meta-analysis in 1989, a number of randomised trials on the benefit of glucocorticoids have been published, resulting in an increasing interest in the use of glucocorticoids to treat outpatients with croup. The objective of this review was to provide evidence to guide clinicians in their treatment of patients with croup, to examine the ...

Macrophages and the glucocorticoids
Journal of Neuroimmunology, 1992Macrophages fulfill such functions as (i) housekeeping and scavenging, (ii) protective and defense, and (iii) memory. Glucocorticoids are hormones also used as anti-inflammatory and immuno-suppressive drugs. They act on the many functions of macrophages, mainly by interfering with functions (ii) and (iii).

Glucocorticoids and depression
Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1999Depression has been associated with impaired mineralocorticoid receptor function, restrained glucocorticoid receptor feedback at the level of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, raised cortisol level and increased corticotropin-releasing factor activity, which may act in concert to induce the signs and symptoms of the disorder.

Postmenopausal women are at greatest risk of rapid bone loss and fracture with glucocorticoids and should be actively considered for prophylactic measures. In men and premenopausal women receiving glucocorticoids, the decision to use anti-osteoporosis prophylaxis is less clear and depends upon baseline bone mineral density [BMD], anticipated dose and ...
