PMID: 22649490
Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) act through peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) γ to increase insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes (T2DM), but deleterious effects of these ligands mean that selective modulators with...

Cross talk between glucocorticoid and estrogen receptors occurs at a subset of proinflammatory genes
Cvoro A, Yuan C, Paruthiyil S, Miller O, Yamamoto K, Leitman D
J Immunol
. 2011 Mar;
186(7):4354-60.
PMID: 21357268
Glucocorticoids exert potent anti-inflammatory effects by repressing proinflammatory genes. We previously demonstrated that estrogens repress numerous proinflammatory genes in U2OS cells. The objective of this study was to determine if...
