NALP3 inflammasome upregulation and CASP1 cleavage of the glucocorticoid receptor cause glucocorticoid resistance in leukemia cells [PDF]

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2015
Glucocorticoids are universally used in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and resistance to glucocorticoids in leukemia cells confers poor prognosis.

Glucocorticoid Resistance: Is It a Requisite for Increased Cytokine Production in Depression? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2019
Background: Glucocorticoid resistance—reduced function of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR)—is seen in many depressed patients. It is argued that this resistance to glucocorticoids leads to failure of normal feedback regulation on the immune system.

Emerging Epigenetic and Posttranslational Mechanisms Controlling Resistance to Glucocorticoids in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

open access: yesHemaSphere, 2023
Glucocorticoids are extensively used for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia as they pressure cancer cells to undergo apoptosis. Nevertheless, glucocorticoid partners, modifications, and mechanisms of action are hitherto poorly characterized ...

Functional and Structural Impact of Deleterious Missense Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in the NR3C1, CYP3A5, and TNF-α Genes: An In Silico Analysis

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Human diseases are generally influenced by SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms). The mutations in amino acid residues generated by deleterious SNPs contribute to the structural and functional diversity of the encoded protein.

How the glucocorticoid receptor contributes to platinum-based therapy resistance in solid cancer

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Synthetic glucocorticoids serve as co-medication against solid malignant tumors. However, glucocorticoid receptor activation may promote unsolicited cancer resistance to chemotherapy.

Changes in Functional Glucocorticoid Sensitivity of Isolated Splenocytes Induced by Chronic Psychosocial Stress – A Time Course Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Chronic psychosocial stress is a risk factor for the development of numerous disorders, of which most are associated with chronic low-grade inflammation.

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.

Glycometabolic Alterations in Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency: Does Replacement Therapy Play a Role? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Secondary adrenal insufficiency (SAI) is a potentially life-threatening endocrine disorder due to an impairment of corticotropin (ACTH) secretion from any process affecting the hypothalamus or pituitary gland.

Selective glucocorticoid receptor-activating adjuvant therapy in cancer treatments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Although adverse effects and glucocorticoid resistance cripple their chronic use, glucocorticoids form the mainstay therapy for acute and chronic inflammatory disorders, and play an important role in treatment protocols of both lymphoid malignancies and ...

The glucocorticoid-Angptl4-ceramide axis induces insulin resistance through PP2A and PKCζ. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Chronic glucocorticoid exposure is associated with the development of insulin resistance. We showed that glucocorticoid-induced insulin resistance was attenuated upon ablation of Angptl4, a glucocorticoid target gene encoding the secreted protein ...
