Journal ArticleDOI

The Interactome of the Glucocorticoid Receptor and Its Influence on the Actions of Glucocorticoids in Combatting Inflammatory and Infectious Diseases

TL;DR: A state-of-the-art overview of the protein-protein interactions of GR that positively or negatively affect its anti-inflammatory properties, along with mechanistic insights, if known.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of Protein–Protein Interactions for the Development of Novel Therapeutics

TL;DR: A focused overview of a number of PPIs that control critical regulatory pathways and constitute targets for the design of novel therapeutics that are still under preclinical investigation but for which preliminary data support their use as therapeutic targets are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dominance of the strongest: Inflammatory cytokines versus glucocorticoids

TL;DR: New insights into the molecular mechanisms of GR-mediated actions and GCR are needed for the design of more effective GC-based therapies, because when cytokines overrule the anti-inflammatory actions of GCs, patients become GC insensitive.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibits Glucocorticoid Receptor Function in Mice A STRONG SIGNAL TOWARD LETHAL SHOCK

TL;DR: It is suggested that the decreased amount of GR determines the GR response and outcome of TNFα-induced shock, as supported by studies with GR heterozygous mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

LPS resistance of SPRET/Ei mice is mediated by Gilz, encoded by the Tsc22d3 gene on the X chromosome

TL;DR: It is reported that LPS resistance of the inbred mouse strain SPRET/Ei, previously reported to depend on the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), maps to the distal region of the X‐chromosome and encoded by Tsc22d3, encoding the protein Gilz, and that it could become a treatment option for sepsis.
