| Abstract |
Proper expression of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) plays an essential role in the development of the lung. GR expression and signaling in the lung is manipulated by administration of synthetic glucocorticoids (Gcs) for the treatment of neonatal, childhood and adult lung diseases. In lung cancers, Gcs are also commonly used as co-treatment during chemotherapy. This review summarises the effect of Gc monotherapy and co-therapy on lung cancers in-vitro, in mouse models of lung cancer, in xenograft, ex-vivo and in-vivo. The disparity between the effects of pre-clinical and in-vivo Gc therapy are commented on in light of the recent discovery of the GR as a novel tumour suppressor gene. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 June 2016.
All research outputs
#15,517,992
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Endocrinology
#1,832
of 2,528 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#210,388
of 403,260 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Endocrinology
#14
of 30 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,528 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 403,260 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 30 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its contemporaries.
