Lysate preparation: Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10). This means that the protein of interest is denatured. If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.
User storage instructions: Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) also known as the cortisol receptor is a type of nuclear receptor that functions as a transcription factor. This receptor has a molecular mass of approximately 97 kDa. GR is expressed in various tissues including the liver lung and immune cells. Its mechanical action involves binding to glucocorticoids—hormones like cortisol—which can regulate DNA transcription. When activated the receptor translocates into the cell nucleus where it can directly interact with DNA to regulate gene expression.
The glucocorticoid receptor plays a significant role in mediating the physiological effects of glucocorticoids. It controls processes like inflammation and immune response. The receptor is part of a larger receptor complex enhancing its effectiveness in gene regulation. It modulates expression levels of diverse genes involved in metabolism immune functionality and cellular growth. GR's regulatory actions make it contextual within various biological processes impacting cellular behavior extensively.
The glucocorticoid receptor integrates into significant signaling networks like the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and the inflammatory response pathway. This receptor coordinates with other proteins to control stress responses and inflammatory signals. In the HPA axis GR helps regulate cortisol levels and counteracts inflammatory cytokines. Its interaction with other receptors and transcription factors exemplifies its role in essential pathways that maintain homeostasis and stress adaptation within the organism.
Abnormal glucocorticoid receptor function links to conditions like Cushing's syndrome and glucocorticoid resistance. Cushing's syndrome characterized by excessive cortisol levels shows altered GR signaling. Similarly glucocorticoid resistance involves mutations or dysfunctions in GR that lead to improper hormone action affecting inflammation and immune responses. These diseases often involve other proteins such as various cytokines in the inflammatory response showing the broad impact of GR in disease processes.
