N2 - Granulomas contain multinucleated giant cells (MGCs), the function of which remains largely unknown. In patients with autoimmune granulomatous disease, the granulomas can be resolved during treatment with glucocorticosteroid (GCS). However, little is known about the influence of GCSs on the formation of MGCs.
