## Abstract Steroid hormones such as glucocorticoids and estrogens are wellβknown regulators of peripheral immune responses and also show antiβinflammatory properties in the brain. However, the expression of steroid hormone receptors in microglia, the pivotal immune cell that coordinates the brain

The characterization of the superfamily of nuclear receptors, in particular the steroid/retinoid/thyroid hormone receptors, has resulted in a more complete understanding of how a repertoire of hormonally and nutritionally derived lipophilic ligands controls cell functions to effect development and h
## Abstract Receptors for glucocorticoids, estrogens, androgens, and thyroid hormones have been detected in mitochondria of various cell types by Western blotting, immunofluorescence labeling, confocal microscopy, and immunogold electron microscopy. A role of these receptors in mitochondrial transc
Steroid hormone receptors are ligand-inducible transcription factors that exhibit potent effect on gene expression in living cells. Precise dissection of their mode of action at the molecular level can best be carried out in functional cell-free systems. This article will describe the benefits of su
