Indication:For the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of
corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. Also used to treat endocrine (hormonal)
disorders (adrenal insufficiency, Addisons disease). It is also used to treat many
immune and allergic disorders, such as arthritis, lupus, severe psoriasis, severe
asthma, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn-s disease.
Pharmacology:Hydrocortisone is the most important human glucocorticoid. It is essential for life
and regulates or supports a variety of important cardiovascular, metabolic,
immunologic and homeostatic functions. Topical hydrocortisone is used for its
anti-inflammatory or immunosuppressive properties to treat inflammation due to
corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. Glucocorticoids are a class of steroid
hormones characterised by an ability to bind with the cortisol receptor and trigger
a variety of important cardiovascular, metabolic, immunologic and homeostatic
effects. Glucocorticoids are distinguished from mineralocorticoids and sex steroids
by having different receptors, target cells, and effects. Technically, the term
corticosteroid refers to both glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids, but is often
used as a synonym for glucocorticoid. Glucocorticoids suppress cell-mediated
immunity. They act by inhibiting genes that code for the cytokines IL-1, IL-2, IL-3,
IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-alpha, the most important of which is the IL-2.
Reduced cytokine production limits T cell proliferation. Glucocorticoids also
suppress humoral immunity, causing B cells to express lower amounts of IL-2 and IL-2
receptors. This diminishes both B cell clonal expansion and antibody synthesis. The
diminished amounts of IL-2 also leads to fewer T lymphocyte cells being activated.
Mechanism_of_action:Hydrocortisone binds to the cytosolic glucocorticoid receptor. After binding the
receptor the newly formed receptor-ligand complex translocates itself into the cell
nucleus, where it binds to many glucocorticoid response elements (GRE) in the
promoter region of the target genes. The DNA bound receptor then interacts with
basic transcription factors, causing the increase in expression of specific target
genes. The anti-inflammatory actions of corticosteroids are thought to involve
lipocortins, phospholipase A2 inhibitory proteins which, through inhibition
arachidonic acid, control the biosynthesis of prostaglandins and leukotrienes.
Specifically glucocorticoids induce lipocortin-1 (annexin-1) synthesis, which then
binds to cell membranes preventing the phospholipase A2 from coming into contact
with its substrate arachidonic acid. This leads to diminished eicosanoid production.
The cyclooxygenase (both COX-1 and COX-2) expression is also suppressed,
potentiating the effect. In another words, the two main products in inflammation
Prostaglandins and Leukotrienes are inhibited by the action of Glucocorticoids.
Glucocorticoids also stimulate the lipocortin-1 escaping to the extracellular space,
where it binds to the leukocyte membrane receptors and inhibits various inflammatory
events: epithelial adhesion, emigration, chemotaxis, phagocytosis, respiratory burst
and the release of various inflammatory mediators (lysosomal enzymes, cytokines,
tissue plasminogen activator, chemokines etc.) from neutrophils, macrophages and
mastocytes. Additionally the immune system is suppressed by corticosteroids due to a
decrease in the function of the lymphatic system, a reduction in immunoglobulin and
complement concentrations, the precipitation of lymphocytopenia, and interference
with antigen-antibody binding.
