Abstract:
The daily intramuscular injections of hydrocortisone acetate for about 20 days (2 mg/100g body weight per day), resulted in a marked decrease of specific binding capacity (Ro) and an increase of the equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) of the hepatic cytosol with [3H] dexamethasone in rats. There were no changes of Ro and Kd in the control groups after saline injection for about 20 days or a single injection of hydro-cortisone acetate 5 hours or 24 hours prior to sacrification of the animals. The results indicated the exsistence of down-regulation of glucocorticoid hormone to its homologous receptor after chronic admnistration of glucocrticoid hormone.
