Expression of Progesterone Receptor A form and Its Role in the Interaction of Progesterone with Cortisol on Cyclooxygenase-2 Expression in Amnionic Fibroblasts
Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 10/29/09
Guo CM et al. – Endogenous progesterone might counteract the induction of prostaglandin synthesis by cortisol via PRA transdominant repression of GR function, whereas high levels of progesterone might further inhibit the induction by cortisol via competitive binding to GR in human amnion fibroblasts. These inhibitory actions of progesterone and PRA on glucocorticoids and GR may partly explain the inconsistent effects of glucocorticoids on parturition in humans.
