The glucocorticoid receptor in inflammatory processes : transrepression is not enough [PDF]
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are the most commonly used anti-inflammatory agents to treat inflammatory and immune diseases. However, steroid therapies are accompanied by severe side-effects during long-term treatment. The dogma that transrepression of genes, by

Pathway interactions between MAPKs, mTOR, PKA, and the glucocorticoid receptor in lymphoid cells
Background Glucocorticoids are frequently used as a primary chemotherapeutic agent in many types of human lymphoid malignancies because they induce apoptosis through activation of the glucocorticoid receptor, with subsequent alteration of a complex ...

Selective glucocorticoid receptor properties of GSK866 analogs with cysteine reactive warheads [PDF]
Synthetic glucocorticoids (GC) are the mainstay therapy for treatment of acute and chronic inflammatory disorders. Due to the high adverse effects associated with long-term use, GC pharmacology has focused since the nineties on more selective GC ligand ...
