DOI: 10.1016/j.rvsc.2017.02.024
Abstract: Anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS) are strictly forbidden in equine sports because of their stimulating effect on muscle growth and performance. Nevertheless, low levels of AAS have been found in some horses, untreated with AAS. Glucocorticoids (GC),… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/hmg/ddx117
Abstract: Glucocorticoid treatment represents a standard palliative treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients, but various adverse effects have limited this treatment. In an effort to understand the mechanism(s) by which glucocorticoids impart their effects on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12891-017-1705-z
Abstract: BackgroundThe pathophysiology, including the impact of gene expression, of polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) remains elusive. We profiled the gene expression in muscle tissue in PMR patients before and after glucocorticoid treatment.MethodsGene expression was measured using Affymetrix… read more here.
