ADRENOCORTICOSTEROID RECEPTOR EFFECTS ON HIPPOCAMPAL NEURON VIABILITY
Glucocorticoid activation of two types of adrenocorticosteroid receptors (ACRs), themineralocorticoid receptor (MR) and the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), influences hippocampalneuron vulnerability to injury. Excessive activation of GR may compromise hippocampalneuron survival after several types of...
