Antidepressant-like mechanism of honokiol in a rodent model of corticosterone-induced depression [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2020
Depression is closely linked to hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis hyperactivity. Honokiol, a biphenolic lignan compound obtained from the traditional Chinese medicine Magnolia officinalis, can reduce the activity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal ...

Context-Dependent Role of Glucocorticoid Receptor Alpha and Beta in Breast Cancer Cell Behaviour

open access: yesCells, 2023
Background. The dual role of GCs has been observed in breast cancer; however, due to many concomitant factors, GR action in cancer biology is still ambiguous. In this study, we aimed to unravel the context-dependent action of GR in breast cancer. Methods.

Glucocorticoid Receptor

open access: yesDefinitions, 2020
Glucocorticoid receptor is encoded by the human NR3C1 gene. This protein plays a role in both chromatin remodeling and transcriptional regulation.

Combinatorial actions of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid stress hormone receptors are required for preventing neurodegeneration of the mouse hippocampus

open access: yesNeurobiology of Stress, 2021
Chronic stress contributes to numerous human pathologies including cognition impairments and psychiatric disorders. Glucocorticoids are primary stress hormones that activate two closely related nuclear receptors, the glucocorticoid (GR) and ...

Placental glucocorticoid receptors are not affected by maternal depression or SSRI treatment

open access: yesUpsala 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.

The glucocorticoid receptor resource [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic 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

Membrane glucocorticoid receptors are localised in the extracellular matrix and signal through the MAPK pathway in mammalian skeletal muscle fibres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A number of studies have previously proposed the existence of glucocorticoid receptors on the plasma membrane of many cell types including skeletal muscle fibres.

A plant-derived glucocorticoid receptor modulator attenuates inflammation without provoking ligand-induced resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Acquired resistance to glucocorticoids constitutes a major clinical challenge, often overlooked in the search for improved alternatives to classic steroids.

Glucocorticoid resistance conferring mutation in the C-terminus of GR alters the receptor conformational dynamics

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The glucocorticoid receptor is a key regulator of essential physiological processes, which under the control of the Hsp90 chaperone machinery, binds to steroid hormones and steroid-like molecules and in a rather complicated and elusive response ...

Mitochondrial Glucocorticoid Receptors and Their Actions [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Mitochondria are membrane organelles present in almost all eukaryotic cells. In addition to their well-known role in energy production, mitochondria regulate central cellular processes, including calcium homeostasis, Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) generation, cell death, thermogenesis, and biosynthesis of lipids, nucleic acids, and steroid hormones ...
