Abstract:
AIM: To clarify the effects of glucocorticoids on the messenger RNA expression of glucocorticoid receptor (GR? and GR?). METHODS: messenger RNA of GR ? and GR? were determined by quantitive RT-PCR. RESULTS: Besides GR? mRNA, GR? mRNA is also expressed in human osteosarcoma cell line HOS-8603, human ovarian carcinoma cell line 3AO and human peripheral white blood cells. After administration of dexamethasone, both GR? mRNA and GR? mRNA were down-regulated in a time-dependent and dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: GR? expresses in various kinds of human tissue cells. The expression of GR? is regulated by glucocorticoids.
