Nuclear receptor corepressors non-canonically drive glucocorticoid receptor-dependent activation of hepatic gluconeogenesis
Nuclear receptor corepressors (NCoRs) function in multiprotein complexes containing histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) to alter transcriptional output...
-
Quaternary glucocorticoid receptor structure highlights allosteric interdomain communication
The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that binds DNA and assembles co-regulator complexes to regulate gene...
-
Cryo-EM reveals how Hsp90 and FKBP immunophilins co-regulate the glucocorticoid receptor
Hsp90 is an essential molecular chaperone responsible for the folding and activation of hundreds of ‘client’ proteins, including the glucocorticoid...

Crosstalk between glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors boosts glucocorticoid-induced killing of multiple myeloma cells
The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a crucial drug target in multiple myeloma as its activation with glucocorticoids effectively triggers myeloma...
-
Large-scale, in-cell photocrosslinking at single-residue resolution reveals the molecular basis for glucocorticoid receptor regulation by immunophilins
The Hsp90 co-chaperones FKBP51 and FKBP52 play key roles in steroid-hormone-receptor regulation, stress-related disorders, and sexual embryonic...

Phase-shifting the circadian glucocorticoid profile induces disordered feeding behaviour by dysregulating hypothalamic neuropeptide gene expression
Here we demonstrate, in rodents, how the timing of feeding behaviour becomes disordered when circulating glucocorticoid rhythms are dissociated from...

Glucocorticoid receptor antagonization propels endogenous cardiomyocyte proliferation and cardiac regeneration
In mammals, the physiological activation of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) by glucocorticoids (GCs) promotes the maturation of cardiomyocytes...

Administration of necrostatin-1 ameliorates glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head in rats
Glucocorticoid (GC)-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a serious complication of glucocorticoid treatment and is characterized by...

Glucocorticoid Effect in Cancer Patients
The use of glucocorticoids is very varied in the context of cancer patients and includes the treatment of symptoms related to cancer, but also the... -
PARP1 mediated PARylation contributes to myogenic progression and glucocorticoid transcriptional response
The ADP-ribosyltransferase, PARP1 enzymatically generates and applies the post-translational modification, ADP-Ribose (ADPR). PARP1 roles in genome...

Crosstalk of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4a and glucocorticoid receptor in the regulation of lipid metabolism in mice fed a high-fat-high-sugar diet
BackgroundHepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α) and glucocorticoid receptor (GR), master regulators of liver metabolism, are down-regulated in fatty...

Prenatal glucocorticoid exposure selectively impairs neuroligin 1-dependent neurogenesis by suppressing astrocytic FGF2–neuronal FGFR1 axis
Exposure to maternal stress irreversibly impairs neurogenesis of offspring by inducing life-long effects on interaction between neurons and glia...

Cortisol and glucocorticoid receptor 2 regulate acid secretion in medaka (Oryzias latipes) larvae
Freshwater fish live in environments where pH levels fluctuate more than those in seawater. During acidic stress, the acid–base balance in these fish...

Identification of dicyclohexyl phthalate as a glucocorticoid receptor antagonist by molecular docking and multiple in vitro methods
The potential activities of phthalate esters (PAEs) that interfere with the endocrine system have been focused recently. However, information on...

Glucocorticoid receptor wields chromatin interactions to tune transcription for cytoskeleton stabilization in podocytes
Elucidating transcription mediated by the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is crucial for understanding the role of glucocorticoids (GCs) in the...
-
Elevated glucocorticoid alters the developmental dynamics of hypothalamic neurogenesis in zebrafish
Exposure to excess glucocorticoid (GC) during early development is implicated in adult dysfunctions. Reduced adult hippocampal neurogenesis is a...
-
Activation of cannabinoid receptor 2 alleviates glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head with osteogenesis and maintenance of blood supply
In glucocorticoid (GC)-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), downregulated osteogenic ability and damaged blood supply are two key...

Structural basis of signaling regulation of the human melanocortin-2 receptor by MRAP1
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are regulated by various downstream proteins, of which the melanocortin receptor accessory protein 1 (MRAP1) is...
