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.

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

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,

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
