Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1989
Despite the continuing debate about the risks and benefits of glucocorticoid, their central role in the therapeutic armamentarium remains undisputed. Studies continue to unravel the complexity of their biologic effects on gene transcription, and careful clinical observation refines their therapeutic use.

Glucocorticoid receptors are found in most mammalian tissues and have been studied in detail in a number of tissue culture systems. With cells that have not been exposed to steroids, the receptors are found in the cytoplasmic fraction from which they can be isolated and studied.

Changes in glucocorticoid (GC) receptor sensitivity can be categorized in three different types. First, generalized GC resistance syndrome is a hereditary disease. Patients present with signs and symptoms of increased androgen and/or mineralocorticoid action, combined with biochemical hypercortisolism, but lack of cushingoid features.

The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1992
Glucocorticoid hormones are secreted uniquely from the zona fasciculata of the adrenal cortex, with marked circadian variation in basal levels and acute elevation in response to stress. Glucocorticoid receptors are almost ubiquitously distributed, and mediate a wide range of tissue-specific responses; in addition to classical, [3H]dexamethasone-binding

Journal of Asthma, 1994
Glucocorticoids act on calcium metabolism at many levels to produce osteoporosis, the major pathogenic effect probably being an inhibition of bone formation. In men, this is likely to be contributed to by a dose-related reduction in circulating testosterone concentrations.

Glucocorticoids are the most effective anti-inflammatory treatment for allergic diseases, and inhaled glucocorticoids have now become the first-line treatment for asthma. Glucocorticoids were discovered in the 1940s as extracts of the adrenal cortex and this was followed by the isolation of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from pituitary gland ...

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2002
Postmenopausal women are at greatest risk of rapid bone loss and fracture with glucocorticoids and should be actively considered for prophylactic measures. In men and premenopausal women receiving glucocorticoids, the decision to use anti-osteoporosis prophylaxis is less clear and depends upon baseline bone mineral density [BMD], anticipated dose and ...

Biochemical Pharmacology, 2002
Glucocorticoids are the most effective anti-inflammatory agents known. However, the use of these powerful molecules is plagued by a host of serious, sometimes life-threatening side-effects. The search for new compounds that maintain the efficacy of the steroids without some of the side-effects has entered a new phase.

Glucocorticoid-remediable Aldosteronism
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2011Glucocorticoid-remediable aldosteronism (GRA) is a hereditary form of primary hyperaldosteronism and the most common monogenic cause of hypertension. A chimeric gene duplication leads to ectopic aldosterone synthase activity in the cortisol-producing zona fasciculata of the adrenal cortex, under the regulation of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH ...

Glucocorticoid Feedback Resistance
Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1997Glucocorticoid feedback resistance can be inherited or locally acquired. The implications of these two forms of resistance for disease are strikingly different. The inherited form is characterized by enhanced adrenocortical function and hypercorticism to compensate for a generalized deficit in the glucocorticoid receptor gene, but these individuals ...
