Abstract

Corticosteroids regulate a variety of essential physiological functions, such as mineral balance and stress. The great interest in these steroids, especially the glucocorticoids, stems from roles they are thought to play in neuropsychiatric disorders, such as severe depression and anxiety. The development of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) ligands which are appropriately labeled with short-lived positron-emitting radioisotopes would allow the non- ...
