Placental glucocorticoid receptors are not affected by maternal depression or SSRI treatment
Upsala Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020 Background: Prenatal depression is common, with an estimate that up to one in five pregnant women suffers from depressive symptoms. Maternal depression is associated with poor pregnancy outcomes such as preterm birth and low birth-weight.

Glucocorticoids for human skin: New aspects of the mechanism of action [PDF]
, 2005 Topical glucocorticoids have always been considered first-line drugs for inflammatory diseases of the skin and bronchial system. Applied systemically, glucocorticoids are used for severe inflammatory and immunological diseases and the inhibition of ...
