Mechanisms of anti-inflammatory action and of immunosuppression by glucocorticoids: negative interference of activated glucocorticoid receptor with transcription factors
Abstract
Glucocorticoids are the most widely used anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory agents, whose mechanism of action is based mainly on interference with the activity of transcription factors, such as nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) and activator protein-1 (AP-1). The precise molecular mechanisms of gene repression by glucocorticoids are a controversial matter, due to the existence of many conflicting hypotheses. We discuss the three main paradigms reported in the literature, namely the inhibitor kappaB-alpha (IkappaB-alpha) upregulatory model, the protein-protein interaction model and the competition model.

“For example, one of the mechanisms underlying the anti-inflammatory effects of GCs is the inhibition of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), a major transcription factor for the inflammatory-response genes (De Bosscher et al, 2000).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
