Recent advances in the molecular mechanisms determining tissue sensitivity to glucocorticoids: novel mutations, circadian rhythm and ligand-induced repression of the human glucocorticoid receptor

BMC Endocrine Disorders, 2014
Glucocorticoids are pleiotropic hormones, which are involved in almost every cellular, molecular and physiologic network of the organism, and regulate a broad spectrum of physiologic functions essential for life.

Physician Referral Patterns to Physical Therapists for Managing Knee Osteoarthritis: A Retrospective Analysis of Electronic Health Records from an Integrated Health System

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives This study aims to describe the frequency and timing of physician referrals to physical therapists (PT) and other treatments prescribed over 12 months in patients with recent onset of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The study also aims to identify determinants of early PT referrals.

Glucocorticoid Is Involved in Food-Entrainable Rhythm of μ-Opioid Receptor Expression in Mouse Brainstem and Analgesic Effect of Morphine

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
.: The repeated manipulation of feeding schedule has a marked influence on the chronopharmaological aspects of many drugs. In this study, we investigated the role of endogenous glucocorticoid in the mechanism by which restricting the feeding time ...

Adipokines and Associations with Incident Osteoporotic Fracture in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Purpose We assessed whether circulating adipokines are associated with incident fractures in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Three adipokines (adiponectin, leptin, fibroblast growth factor [FGF]‐21) were measured using banked enrollment serum from participants in a longitudinal RA cohort.

Genetic Polymorphisms of the Glucocorticoid Receptor and Interleukin-8 Receptor Genes are Related to Production Traits and Hair Coat Score in Crossbred Cattle [PDF]

, 2017
The objective of this thesis was to identify polymorphisms in the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and interleukin-8 receptor (CXCR2) genes and to associate genotypes between the above mentioned polymorphisms and production traits in crossbred cattle.

Chromatin accessibility pre-determines glucocorticoid receptor binding patterns

Nature Genetics, 2011
Development, differentiation and response to environmental stimuli are characterized by sequential changes in cellular state initiated by the de novo binding of regulated transcriptional factors to their cognate genomic sites.

Fecal Microbiota Transplantation Modulates Th17/Treg Balance via JAK/STAT Pathway in ARDS Rats

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) alleviates lung and intestinal injury in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in rats. This study demonstrates that FMT restores the balance between Th17 and Treg cells, inhibits the JAK/STAT pathway, and modulates cytokine levels, reducing inflammation and lung damage. These

Progestins Inhibit Interleukin-1β-Induced Matrix Metalloproteinase 1 and Interleukin 8 Expression via the Glucocorticoid Receptor in Primary Human Amnion Mesenchymal Cells

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Preterm premature rupture of membranes is a leading cause of preterm births. Cytokine induced matrix metalloproteinase1 and interleukin 8 production from amnion mesenchymal cells may contribute to fetal membrane weakening and rupture.
