Identification of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) target genes with considerably increased expression in dexamethasone-treated human dermal fibroblasts. A and B, Hs68 cells were treated with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or 1 µM dexamethasone for 12 h. The fold changes in the 89 GR target genes after dexamethasone treatment were determined by RT-qPCR. Definitions of abbreviations are given in Supplementary Table S1. The data are represented as the mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM) of three replicates. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001.
