Optical Activity UNSPECIFIED

Fluticasone is a medium-potency synthetic trifluorinated corticosteroid which is used in some countries to manage nasal symptoms of allergic and non-allergic rhinitis. Fluticasone binds and activates glucocorticoid receptor, resulting in the activation of lipocortin. Lipocortin, in turn, inhibits cytosolic phospholipase A2, which triggers a cascade of reactions involved in the synthesis of inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Both the furoate and propanoate esters, fluticasone furoate and fluticasone propionate, are much more commonly used as topical anti-inflammatories and inhaled corticosteroids.
