Abstract
In general, steroid hormones exert their effects through intracellular receptors, the glucocorticoid (GR), mineralocorticoid (MR), androgen (AR), estrogen (ER), and progesterone (PR) receptors. In this brief review, we will focus on glucocorticoid and sex hormone actions in the skin through their distinct receptors and discuss their clinical relevance.
