| + | Glucocorticoids (GC) are involved extensively in the regulation of physiological glucose levels. | ||

| + | === Gluconeogenesis === | ||
| + | |||
| + | Gluconeogenesis occurs mainly in the liver to generate glucose from non-carbohydrate substrates such as lactate, glycerol, and gluconeogenic amino acids such as alanine. [[insert pathway]] | ||
| + | GC increase the activity of gluconeogenesis in hepatic cells predominantly by activating the transcription of genes encoding gluconeogenic enzymes such as pyruvate carboxylase (PC), cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK1), fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase 1 (FBP1), phosphofructokinase 2/fructose bisphosphatase 2 complex (PFKFB1), glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit (G6PC), and glucose-6-phosophate (G6P) transporter. GC coordinate with an intracellular glucocorticoid receptor (GR) to signal transcription. Prior to the GC/GR binding however, GR is complexed with a chaperone Hsp90 in the cytoplasm. Upon binding of the GC to the GR, the GR/Hsp90 complex dissociates where | ||
