Endogenous glucocorticoids control neutrophil mobilization from bone marrow to blood and tissues in non‐inflammatory conditions

Abstract

Endogenous glucocorticoids, through activation of GR on neutrophils, physiologically control the rolling behaviour of these cells and, by modulating endothelial functions, affect their adhesiveness. The molecular mechanism induced by activated GR is different in each cell, as NF-kappaB translocation was only altered in endothelial cells.
