Glucocorticoid in Neonatal Rat Heart
The ability of cells to directly respond to glucocorticoids and aldosterone is a function of GR and MR expression, and coexpression of 11 -hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (11 HSDs), which convert glucocorticoids and their 11-ketometabolites into either receptor inactive or active derivatives. The aim of the present study was to determine the cellular expression of GR, MR, 11 HSD1, and 11 HSD2 in ...
متن کاملClinical aspects of glucocorticoid sensitivity.
Recent studies demonstrate that primary (hereditary) abnormalities in the glucocorticoid receptor gene make 6.6% of the normal population relatively "hypersensitive" to glucocorticoids, while 2.3% are relatively "resistant." These abnormalities might explain why some individuals develop severe adverse effects during low dose glucocorticoid therapy, while others do not develop side effects even ...

متن کاملSensitivity And Specificity Of Procalcitonin In Diagnosis Of Neonatal Sepsis
Background and Objective: According to the fact that neonatal infection is a challenging diagnosis field, several studies have tried to test sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic tests. This study was conducted to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of procalcitonin (PCT) as a single early marker of neonatal sepsis. Materials and Methods: In this study, 150 neonates admitted to NIC...
متن کاملGlucocorticoid effects on the uptake of antibiotics by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes
The effects of glucocorticoids on the uptake of 8 antibiotics by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), and the subsequent bactericidal activity of PMNs with 5 of the antibiotics, were examined. The experiments demonstrated that a synthetic glucocorticoid, methylprednisolone at a concentration of more than 50 mg/I, inhibited the uptake of clindamycin, erythromycin and josamycin, but didn't ...
