Abstract

Glucocorticoids (GCs) and their cognate, intracellular receptor, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) have been characterized as critical checkpoints in the hormonal control of energy homeostasis in mammals. Whereas physiological levels of GCs are required for proper metabolic control, aberrant GC action has been linked to a variety of severe metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes and obesity. As a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of transcription factors, the GR translocates into the cell nucleus upon GC binding where it serves as a transcriptional regulator of distinct GC-responsive target genes that are in many cases associated with lipid regulatory pathways and thereby intricately control both physiological and pathophysiological systemic lipid homeostasis. Thus, this chapter focuses on the current knowledge of GC/GR function in lipid handling and its implications for systemic metabolic dysfunction.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 July 2015.
All research outputs
#15,074,968
of 23,940,793 outputs
Outputs from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#2,196
of 5,077 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#194,022
of 359,647 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#96
of 273 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,940,793 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,077 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.5. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 359,647 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 273 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 62% of its contemporaries.
