This meta-analysis found a consistent positive association between glucocorticoids in hair and obesity measures, with the relationship between hair cortisone and waist circumference being particularly clinically relevant.

New mutations in hair keratin genes cause the rare hair disorder monilethrix.

This study concluded that GLCAT14A-C genes are crucial for the function of glucuronic acid transfer to AGPs in Arabidopsis, affecting various growth and reproductive traits such as seed germination and root hair growth.

This study established a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome due to a specific Crh mutation, which may help explore the effects of glucocorticoid excess and evaluate treatments for corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis.

This study found that dexamethasone treatment reduced cell viability and growth factor expression in human dermal papilla cells, suggesting it inhibits hair growth.

This study reports that riboflavin may increase enzymatic activity in a GCDH-deficient patient with specific mutations, but doesn't fully normalize urinary organic acid levels.

In this case study, a man with necrolytic migratory erythema and a glucagonoma experienced decreased plasma glucagon levels and reduced metastases after treatment with dimethyltriazenoimidazole carboxamide.

This study demonstrated that optical coherence tomography effectively detects significant changes in hair structure caused by steroid treatment, suggesting its potential use in doping control and clinical therapy monitoring.

This study found that follicular stem cells in hair follicles are more sensitive to the antiproliferative effects of glucocorticoids compared to basal keratinocytes due to incomplete desensitization.

In this study, abnormal glucose tolerance was found to be prevalent among young Indian women with PCOS, and the use of an oral glucose tolerance test significantly improved its detection.

This study found that the N363S variant of the glucocorticoid receptor was rare among women with PCOS and did not significantly contribute to genetic risk for PCOS or adrenal androgen excess.

This study demonstrated that elevated glucocorticoid levels in transgenic mice led to pancreatic exocrine cells transforming into hepatocyte-like cells, resulting in pancreatic dysfunction.

In this case report, two cats with asthma developed localized skin lesions associated with inhalant glucocorticoid use, which resolved after adjusting treatment and administering milbemycin.

Glucocorticoid receptors help regulate genes important for skin health and hair growth.

This case study reported that glucocorticoid treatment markedly improved all clinical features in a girl with generalized komuragaeri disease, suggesting potential autoimmune involvement in the disease's pathogenesis.

Higher doses of glucocorticoids increase the risk of blood clots in asthma patients.

Local skin glucocorticoid production is crucial for healthy skin, and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.

This study found that manipulating AKR1D1 expression in human liver cells effectively regulates glucocorticoid clearance and receptor activation, highlighting its role in liver-specific steroid hormone regulation.

This study observed that Parkinson’s disease patients had higher hair cortisone, but not cortisol, levels compared to controls, and cortisone was significantly associated with mood-related non-motor symptoms.

This review discusses the roles of glucocorticoids and glucocorticoid receptors, and it explores potential genetic and non-genetic causes of glucocorticoid resistance or hypersensitivity syndromes, reporting no new clinical results.

This review summarizes the clinical features and molecular causes of Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance, highlighting new findings from the characterization of mutations in the NR3C1 gene, but reports no new experimental results.

A gluten-free diet does not help hair regrowth in celiac disease patients with alopecia areata.

This study found that the enzyme glutamine synthetase is distributed throughout the epidermis and its activity in keratinocytes is notably increased by ammonium ions, suggesting the skin serves as a reservoir for glutamine generation.

In this study, researchers observed that the absence of the vitamin D receptor or its ligand-activated transcription in mice did not affect glucose homeostasis or gene expression in islets.

This study found that exogenous glutamic acid can promote hair growth and keratinocyte proliferation, suggesting a novel signalling pathway in the skin.

This study found that megestrol acetate increases the proliferation, migration, and adipogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells through glucocorticoid receptor phosphorylation.

This study found that age-related fluctuations in hormones and endocannabinoids in male C57BL/6 mice showed specific patterns, with peak values observed around 2.7 to 3.4 months, with these patterns seen in both plasma and hair but with different magnitudes.

This study found that the ethyl acetate fraction of Hibiscus rosa sinensis petals significantly reduced serum glucose and glycated hemoglobin levels in diabetic rats, showing effects comparable to the standard drug metformin.

In this study, topical MR blockade improved delayed wound healing in glucocorticoid-pretreated mice by promoting anti-inflammatory macrophages and enhancing angiogenesis.

This study found that polymeric micelle nanocarriers delivered pharmacologically relevant amounts of spironolactone to the epidermis and upper dermis, with higher delivery to pilosebaceous units, suggesting potential for treating glucocorticoid-induced impaired wound healing and pilosebaceous androgen-related skin diseases.
