Chemical genomics: dialed in transcriptional network control with non-steroidal glucocorticoid receptor modulators

ACS Chem Biol. 2006 Apr 25;1(3):139-40. doi: 10.1021/cb600137r.

Abstract

A recent study analyzed the transcriptional effects induced by a panel of non-steroidal glucocorticoid receptor modulators. The authors discover patterns of cell-, gene-, and mechanism-specific regulation, with implications for development of improved anti-inflammatory agents.
