Solution

The correct option is D Glucocorticoid
Glucocorticoid is a steroid hormone, that is produced by the adrenal gland and is known for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive actions. Glucocorticoids reduce the synthesis of some proteins, that directly mediate the inflammatory response. As anti-inflammatory agents, they are also used in the treatment of bronchial asthma.
