[Nongenomic effects of glucocorticoids, an important mechanism of inhaled glucocorticoids action in asthma].

Journal Title: Advances in Respiratory Medicine - Year 2009, Vol 77, Issue 5

Abstract

Authors describe the clinical implications of nongenomic effects of glucocorticoids, important also for the inhaled drugs. Data suggest that these rapid actions of glucocorticoids are important in the pharmacotherapy of asthma, particularly for prevention and treatment of acute exacerbations. Their influence on remodeling is also considered.
