It takes two to tango: Dimerisation of glucocorticoid receptor and its anti-inflammatory functions

 Review Article

Highlights

► Glucocorticoids (GCs) are anti-inflammatory, but result in adverse side effects. ► Anti-inflammatory actions thought to be independent of GC receptor dimerisation. ► However, receptor dimerisation crucial to some anti-inflammatory actions. ► Here we explore the role of GC receptor dimerisation and its consequences.

Highlights

► 17β-Estradiol (E2) induce activation of the phosphoinositide hydrolysis in rat hippocampus. ► Classic ESR1, that underwent nuclear export, are involved in these actions. ► Regulation of ESR1 by estrous cycle does not play a role in the magnitude of the response to E2. ► The rapid actions might be a key step mediating cellular events important for learning and memory.
