Glucocorticoid receptor β regulates injury-mediated astrocyte activation and contributes to glioma pathogenesis via modulation of β-catenin/TCF transcriptional activity

Astrocytes react to central nervous system (CNS) injury and participate in gliotic responses, imparting negative, as well as positive effects on axonal regeneration. Despite the considerable biochemical and morphological changes astrocytes undergo following insult, and the known influence of steroid...
