[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GCR_HUMAN GCR_HUMAN]] Defects in NR3C1 are a cause of glucocorticoid resistance (GCRES) [MIM:[http://omim.org/entry/138040 138040]]; also known as cortisol resistance. It is a hypertensive, hyperandrogenic disorder characterized by increased serum cortisol concentrations. Inheritance is autosomal dominant.<ref>PMID:12050230</ref><ref>PMID:1704018</ref><ref>PMID:7683692</ref><ref>PMID:11589680</ref><ref>PMID:11701741</ref>  

[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GCR_HUMAN GCR_HUMAN]] Receptor for glucocorticoids (GC). Has a dual mode of action: as a transcription factor that binds to glucocorticoid response elements (GRE), both for nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, and as a modulator of other transcription factors. Affects inflammatory responses, cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues. Could act as a coactivator for STAT5-dependent transcription upon growth hormone (GH) stimulation and could reveal an essential role of hepatic GR in the control of body growth. Involved in chromatin remodeling. Plays a significant role in transactivation.<ref>PMID:21664385</ref> [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/NCOR1_HUMAN NCOR1_HUMAN]] Mediates transcriptional repression by certain nuclear receptors. Part of a complex which promotes histone deacetylation and the formation of repressive chromatin structures which may impede the access of basal transcription factors.<ref>PMID:14527417</ref>
