Novel Mechanism of Steroid Action in Skin through Glucocorticoid Receptor Monomers
1 Jun 2000
Abstract excerpt
Glucocorticoids (GCs), important regulators of epidermal growth, differentiation, and homeostasis, are used extensively in the treatment of skin diseases. Using keratin gene expression as a paradigm of epidermal physiology and pathology, we have developed a model system to study the molecular mechanism of GCs action in skin. Here we describe a novel mechanism of suppression of transcription by the glucocorticoid...
