Glucocorticoid receptor modulators
Annales d'Endocrinologie, 2018 The glucocorticoid hormone cortisol acts throughout the body to support circadian processes and adaptation to stress. The glucocorticoid receptor is the target of cortisol and of synthetic glucocorticoids, which are used widely in the clinic. Both agonism and antagonism of the glucocorticoid receptor may be beneficial in disease, but given the wide ...

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020 Background Arginine vasopressin dependent antidiuresis plays a key role in water‐sodium retention in heart failure. In recent years, the role of glucocorticoids in the control of body fluid homeostasis has been extensively investigated.

Narrative Review: Glucocorticoids in Alcoholic Hepatitis—Benefits, Side Effects, and Mechanisms
Journal of Xenobiotics, 2022 Alcoholic hepatitis is a major health and economic burden worldwide. Glucocorticoids (GCs) are the only first-line drugs recommended to treat severe alcoholic hepatitis (sAH), with limited short-term efficacy and significant side effects. In this review,

Contribution of Endogenous Glucocorticoids and Their Intravascular Metabolism by 11β-HSDs to Postangioplasty Neointimal Proliferation in Mice [PDF]
, 2012 Exogenous glucocorticoids inhibit neointimal proliferation in animals. We aime to test the hypothesis that endogenous glucocorticoids influence neointimal proliferation; this may be mediated by effects on systemic risk factors or locally in vessels, and ...

Role of Glucocorticoids and Glucocorticoid Receptors in Glaucoma Pathogenesis
Cells, 2023 The glucocorticoid receptor (GR), including both alternative spliced isoforms (GRα and GRβ), has been implicated in the development of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and iatrogenic glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma (GIG). POAG is the most common form of glaucoma, which is the leading cause of irreversible vision loss and blindness in the world ...

Evolution of glucocorticoid receptors with different glucocorticoid sensitivity [PDF]
Journal of Endocrinology, 2006 Glucocorticoids (GCs) are commonly used to treat a variety of immune diseases. However, the efficacy of treatment is greatly influenced by an individual variation in sensitivity to GCs, which is caused by differences in the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). The variable receptor profile results from variations in the GR gene, or alternative splicing of the
