What is All are functions of coicosteroids except and explain in detail?
Coicosteroids are group of natural and synthetic analogues of the hormones secreted by the hypothalamic-anterior pituitary-adrenocoical (HPA) axis, more commonly referred to as the pituitary gland. These include glucocoicoids, which are anti-inflammatory agents with a large number of other functions; mineralocoicoids, which control salt and water balance primarily through action on the kidneys; and coicotropins, which control secretion of hormones by the pituitary gland.glucocoicoids are the group of coicosteroid hormones (mainly coisol syn hydrocoisone, of which coisone is the precursor) produced by the adrenal coex, under the control of adrenocoicotrophic hormone (ACTH) from the anterior pituitary. Their major actions on nutrient metabolism have the net effect of promoting glucose and free fatty acid availability as fuels. Also vital for normal cellular processes as diverse, for example, as excitation-contraction coupling and the health of connective tissues.mineralocoicoids are adrenal coicosteroids that are active in the retention of salt and in the maintenance of life of adrenalectomized animals. Typical are deoxycoicosterone and aldosterone. Aldosterone is a natural hormone for salt retention but also has some regulatory effect on carbohydrate metabolism.Ref: Ganong&;s review of medical physiology;24th edition
