Glucocorticoid (GC) signalling via the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is essential for normal lung development. Previous work using conditional mouse knockouts of the GR gene established that GR activity in the mesenchymal compartment of the lung is critical for normal respiratory development. Screens for GC-target genes with conditional mesenchymal GR deficient mouse lung (GRmeskO) identified Versican (Vcan), an important extracellular matrix (ECM) component and cell proliferat...
