      Background: Chrousos syndrome is a rare pathologic condition characterized by generalized, partial resistance of target tissues to glucocorticoids and caused by inactivating mutations of the human glucocorticoid receptor ...
    • Potential dissociative glucocorticoid receptor activity for protopanaxadiol and protopanaxatriol 

      Karra A.G., Konstantinou M., Tzortziou M., Tsialtas I., Kalousi F.D., Garagounis C., Hayes J.M., Psarra A.-M.G. (2019)
      �Glucocorticoids are steroid hormones that regulate inflammation, growth, metabolism, and apoptosis via their cognate receptor, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). GR, acting mainly as a transcription factor, activates or ...
