The proinflammatory cytokine, interleukin-1alpha, reduces glucocorticoid receptor translocation and function.

abstract：:Previous studies have shown that aldosterone plus salt loading cause cardiac hypertrophy in rats in vivo, and that in vitro, both aldosterone and glucose stimulate fibroblast growth. The present studies examined the effects of adrenal steroids via mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid receptors (MR and GR) on [3H]leuci...
