Previously, this resistance of the adult SCN clock was attributed to a developmental loss of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR).

In the adult SCN, GR immunoreactivity is present in both neurons and glia. The effect of DEX on the SCN clock disappears shortly after birth.

Inhibition of glial metabolism by fluorocitrate had no effect on resistance to DEX, but treatment with tetrodotoxin sensitized the clock to DEX and induced phase shifts similar to those observed at the fetal stage.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These results indicate that the adult SCN possesses GRs capable of activating GC\u2010signaling pathways, but the clock is resistant to GC in part due to coupling between individual cellular oscillators.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/apha.70138","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,28]],"date-time":"2025-11-28T23:50:53Z","timestamp":1764373853000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Suprachiasmatic Nuclei Possess Glucocorticoid Receptors That Activate Downstream Signaling Pathways but Do Not Entrain Their Circadian Clock"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"242","author":[{"given":"Martin","family":"Sl\u00e1dek","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Biological Rhythms Institute of Physiology of the Czech Academy of Sciences  Prague Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vendula","family":"Lu\u017en\u00e1","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Biological Rhythms Institute of Physiology of the Czech Academy of Sciences  Prague Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pavel","family":"Houdek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Biological Rhythms Institute of Physiology of the Czech Academy of Sciences  Prague Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4126-5470","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alena","family":"Sumov\u00e1","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Biological Rhythms Institute of Physiology of the Czech Academy of Sciences  Prague Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0006-8993(72)90054-6"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_12_3_1","first-page":"xi","article-title":"The Daily Rhythm of the Secretion of Corticotrophin and Corticosterone in Rats and Mice","volume":"49","author":"Cheifetz P.
