Difference between Glucocorticoid and Influenza

Glucocorticoid vs. Influenza

Glucocorticoids are a class of corticosteroids, which are a class of steroid hormones. Influenza, commonly known as "the flu", is an infectious disease caused by an influenza virus.

Similarities between Glucocorticoid and Influenza

Glucocorticoid and Influenza have 21 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adrenocorticotropic hormone, Allergy, Antibody, Asthma, Cancer, Cell nucleus, Cortisol, Cytokine, Diabetes mellitus, Epithelium, Gastrointestinal tract, Gene, Heart failure, Human parainfluenza viruses, Immune system, Immunosuppression, Inflammation, Influenza, Liver, Lymphocyte, Macrophage.

Adrenocorticotropic hormone

Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH, also adrenocorticotropin, corticotropin) is a polypeptide tropic hormone produced by and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland.

Allergy

Allergies, also known as allergic diseases, are a number of conditions caused by hypersensitivity of the immune system to typically harmless substances in the environment.

Antibody

An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shaped protein produced mainly by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to neutralize pathogens such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.

Cell nucleus

In cell biology, the nucleus (pl. nuclei; from Latin nucleus or nuculeus, meaning kernel or seed) is a membrane-enclosed organelle found in eukaryotic cells.

Gastrointestinal tract

The gastrointestinal tract (digestive tract, digestional tract, GI tract, GIT, gut, or alimentary canal) is an organ system within humans and other animals which takes in food, digests it to extract and absorb energy and nutrients, and expels the remaining waste as feces.

Heart failure

Heart failure (HF), often referred to as congestive heart failure (CHF), is when the heart is unable to pump sufficiently to maintain blood flow to meet the body's needs.

Inflammation

Inflammation (from inflammatio) is part of the complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants, and is a protective response involving immune cells, blood vessels, and molecular mediators.
