Abstract:
Glucocorticoids (GC) exert a broad effect on the body and have been extensively used clinically.It is well known now that GC can act via both genomic and nongenomic mechanisms.Genomic effects of GC have been well reviewed elsewhere.Here we focus on the current understanding of nongenomic effects and discuss their biologic significance as well as the remaining problems in this field.
