                                Desonide is a non-fluorinated corticosteroid anti-inflammatory agent that acts on the glucocorticoid receptor. Desonide can also specifically bind to the mutant huntingtin protein (mHTT), reducing the level and toxicity of mHTT. Desonide can be used in the research of Huntington's disease and inflammatory diseases such as atopic dermatitis[1][2][3][4].

                                DESCRIPTION
                                Desonide (Prednacinolone) is a synthetic glucocorticosteroid for topical use, with anti-inflammatory activity. Desonide binds to glucocorticoid receptors in the cytoplasm, and the ligand-receptor complex is translocated as a homodimer into the nucleus, where transcription activation via glucocorticoid response elements within glucocorticoid-responsive genes occur. This agent induces transcription of genes coding for anti-inflammatory proteins, including lipocortin-1, interleukin-10, interleukin-1 receptor antagonist and neutral endopeptidase. Increased synthesis of lipocortin-1 has an inhibitory effect on phospholipase A2, which in turn inhibits the release of arachidonic acid, thereby controlling the biosynthesis of potent mediators of inflammation such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes.
