Glucocorticoid and Mineralocorticoid Pathway
Glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid pathways regulate critical physiological responses to stress, inflammation, and electrolyte balance. These pathways are controlled by the adrenal glands, producing hormones like cortisol and aldosterone, which are essential for stress adaptation and sodium-potassium balance in the body. Glucocorticoid inhibitors are commonly used in research focused on inflammatory diseases, autoimmune disorders, and conditions associated with excess cortisol production, such as Cushing’s syndrome. Mineralocorticoid inhibitors are invaluable for studying diseases linked to aldosterone dysregulation, including hypertension and certain kidney diseases. Our comprehensive range of inhibitors, including glucocorticoid receptor antagonists and mineralocorticoid receptor blockers, enables precise modulation of these pathways in vitro and in vivo. With high-quality, rigorously tested compounds, researchers can investigate the cellular mechanisms underpinning adrenal function and develop therapeutic strategies to manage glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid-related disorders effectively.
