*[[Glucocorticoid receptor]]
Glucocorticoids are [[corticosteroids]] that bind to the glucocorticoid receptor. <scene name='89/895670/Cv/3'>Dexamethasone</scene> is a glucocorticoid medication. It is the most potent glucocorticoid and it has not mineralocorticoid potency.

**<scene name='89/895670/Cv/4'>Human glucocorticoid receptor ligand-binding domain bound to dexamethasone</scene> ([[1m2z]]).
**<scene name='96/962959/Tert/1'>Glucocorticoid Receptor in complex with budesonide</scene> ([[5nfp]]).
**<scene name='96/962959/Binding_site/1'>Budesonide binding site</scene>. Water molecule is shown as red sphere.

*[[Forkhead box proteins]] (FOX) are transcription factors involved in regulation of gene expression.<ref>PMID:17889656</ref>. '''FOXO1''' activation contributes to '''glucocorticoid'''-induced beta cell death<ref>PMID:23435785</ref>. FOX contain a DNA-binding motif (DBD) of 80-100 amino acids having a winged-helix shape.

*Microsomal [[Prostaglandin E synthase]] (PGES) converts cyclooxygenase (COX)-derived prostaglandin to PGE2. It is membrane-associated and belongs to the microsomal glutathione S-transferase family. PGES is preferentially linked with the inducible COX-2<ref>PMID:12432931</ref> . PGES is induced by proinflammatory stimuli and down-regulated by anti-inflammatory '''glucocorticoids'''<ref>PMID:16336776</ref>. Microsomal ''Prostaglandin E synthase'' <scene name='77/778890/Cv/2'>is membrane-associated</scene> (coordinates are from [http://opm.phar.umich.edu/protein.php?extrapdb=4yl0 OPM database].
