The glucocorticoid receptor resource [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1996 The glucocorticoid receptor resource focuses on the structure-function relationships of the glucocorticoid receptor. As well as links to sequence and bibliographic databases via the World Wide Web, the database contains sequence comparisons of receptors from different species and source information for glucocorticoid receptor clones, probes, cell lines

Glucocorticoid guides mobilization of bone marrow stem/progenitor cells via FPR and CXCR4 coupling
Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2021 Background Our previous studies have proved the efficient exogenous repairing responses via bone marrow stem and progenitor cells (BMSPCs). However, the trafficking of endogenous bone marrow stem and progenitor cells to and from the bone marrow (BM) is a
