Background Information
Glucocorticoid receptor (GR, or GCR) also known as NR3C1 (nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 1) is a receptor for glucocorticoids, which owns a dual mode of action: as a transcription factor that binds to glucocorticoid response elements (GRE) and as a modulator of other transcription factors. It is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation and specifically implicated in newborn birth weight, thus providing a biological mechanism by which NR3C1 expression may influence birth weight (PMID:22810058).

Reviews
What customers say
Overall, users report positive performance for this antibody in Western Blot and Immunoprecipitation. Four out of five reviewers gave it 4–5 stars, noting a clean single band around 100 kDa in rat hippocampus and strong results in mouse brain tissue and Ac16 cell lines. One reviewer (2 stars) observed multiple non-specific bands when used on porcine brain endothelial cells, indicating cross-reactivity issues in that context. Common dilutions ranged from 1:10 to 1:500 depending on the application. In summary, the antibody performs reliably for its intended species and applications but may show non-specific binding in certain off-target cell types.
