Difference between Glucocorticoid receptor and Mifepristone

Glucocorticoid receptor vs. Mifepristone

The glucocorticoid receptor (GR, or GCR) also known as NR3C1 (nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 1) is the receptor to which cortisol and other glucocorticoids bind. Mifepristone, also known as RU-486, is a medication typically used in combination with misoprostol, to bring about an abortion.

Similarities between Glucocorticoid receptor and Mifepristone

Glucocorticoid receptor and Mifepristone have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Corticosteroid, Cortisol, Dexamethasone, Mineralocorticoid receptor, Receptor (biochemistry), Receptor antagonist, Steroid hormone receptor.

Corticosteroid

Corticosteroids are a class of steroid hormones that are produced in the adrenal cortex of vertebrates, as well as the synthetic analogues of these hormones.

Mineralocorticoid receptor

The mineralocorticoid receptor (or MR, MLR, MCR), also known as the aldosterone receptor or nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 2, (NR3C2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NR3C2 gene that is located on chromosome 4q31.1-31.2.

Receptor antagonist

A receptor antagonist is a type of receptor ligand or drug that blocks or dampens a biological response by binding to and blocking a receptor rather than activating it like an agonist.
