A new mutation in the human glucocorticoid receptor reduces its function and causes resistance to glucocorticoids.
research Large doses of glucocorticoid in the treatment of alopecia areata
Large doses of glucocorticoids are not suitable for general use in treating severe alopecia areata due to inconsistent results and risks.
research Glucocorticoid Effect on Hair Growth Initiation: A Reconsideration
Steroids stop hair growth temporarily but don't block the signals that start it.
research Expression of estrogen, androgen, and glucocorticoid receptors in recent striae distensae
Hormonal changes in skin may cause stretch marks.
research Recent advances in the molecular mechanisms determining tissue sensitivity to glucocorticoids: novel mutations, circadian rhythm and ligand-induced repression of the human glucocorticoid receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Modulation of glucocorticoid action and the treatment of type-2 diabetes
Targeting glucocorticoid action might help treat type-2 diabetes, but human trials are needed.
