Pathway interactions between MAPKs, mTOR, PKA, and the glucocorticoid receptor in lymphoid cells
Cancer Cell International, 2007 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 ...

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 ...

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

Glucocorticoids rapidly inhibit oxytocin-stimulated adrenocorticotropin release from rat anterior pituitary cells, without modifying intracellular calcium transients [PDF]
, 1993 Glucocorticoid hormones suppress the secretion of ACTH evoked by secretagogues such as CRF and arginine vasopressin. In this study, we investigated the effects of glucocorticoids on ACTH release induced by oxytocin (OT) and on intracellular free calcium ...

Glucocorticoid receptor signaling in the brain and its involvement in cognitive function
Neural Regeneration ResearchThe hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis regulates the secretion of glucocorticoids in response to environmental challenges. In the brain, a nuclear receptor transcription factor, the glucocorticoid receptor, is an important component of the hypothalamic ...
