Parasitology
Corticosteroids are a class of steroid hormones produced in the adrenal cortex that play critical roles in the body's response to stress, immune function, and inflammation. These hormones are important in managing various conditions related to inflammation and immune response, making them particularly relevant in cases of parasitic infections where the immune system can be overactivated or suppressed.
