Differences in nuclear retention characteristics of agonist-activated glucocorticoid receptor may determine specific responses
We studied the glucocorticoid response to the synthetic steroid pregna-1,4-diene-11β-ol-3,20-dione (ΔHOP) in several cell types and correlated its biological effect with the ability of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) to be retained in the nuclear compartment. We observed that the ΔHOP-transformed G...
