- Forkhead box proteins (FOX) are transcription factors involved in regulation of gene expression.[1]. FOXO1 activation contributes to glucocorticoid-induced beta cell death[2].
- Nuclear receptor coactivator (NCOA) is a protein recruited by nuclear receptors in order to enhance or repress DNA transcription. NCOA is involved in coactivation with transcription factors[3]. NCOA1 shows histone acetyltransferase activity and is required for steroid hormone response. NCOA2 is a DNA transcription coactivator with glucocorticoid receptor.
- Thioredoxin Reductase (TrxR) is an enzyme which reduces thioredoxin using NADPH[4]. Mutations in TrxR-2 are associated with familial glucocorticoid deficiency[5].
- 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[6] . PGES is induced by proinflammatory stimuli and down-regulated by anti-inflammatory glucocorticoids[7].
