关键词: 糖皮质激素糖皮质激素抵抗药物增敏Glucocorticoids Glucocorticoid Resistance Drug Sensitization
摘要: 糖皮质激素(Glucocorticoid, GC)主要通过抗炎作用和免疫抑制功能发挥临床效能,临床应用中还发现激素抵抗现象,这极大地限制了GC在临床上的应用。因此,近年来研究重点不仅聚焦于开发更强效的GC,也在关注寻找能够“增敏”机体对GC反应性的药物,以实现低剂量、高效率、高安全性的治疗目标,即增强GC在靶组织疗效的同时减少其不良反应。
Abstract: Glucocorticoids (GC) exert their clinical efficacy primarily through anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. However, clinical practice has also revealed the phenomenon of glucocorticoid resistance, which significantly limits the application of GC in clinical settings. Consequently, recent research has focused not only on developing more potent GC but also on identifying drugs that can “sensitize” the body’s responsiveness to GC, aiming to achieve therapeutic goals of low dosage, high efficiency, and high safety—that is, enhancing the efficacy of GC in target tissues while reducing their adverse effects.
