RU28362 

RU28362 is a potent and selective glucocorticoid agonist. RU28362 increases the Bnip3 mRNA levels in neurons. RU28362 inhibits adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone secretion^[1][2]. RU28362 is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.

RU28362 (0.1, 1, 5, 10 nM; 72 h) increases the Bnip3 mRNA levels in a dose-dependent manner after 72 h in neurons^[1].

RU28362 (150 µg/kg; i.p.) inhibits adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone secretion and selectively suppressed the stress-induced increase in POMC hnRNA in the anterior pituitary gland^[2].
