Specific Cytoplasmic Glucocorticoid Hormone Receptors in Hepatoma Tissue Culture Cells

Abstract

Kinetic and equilibrium studies are presented for the reversible binding of [ 3 H]dexamethasone by “specific” macromolecular receptors in the cytoplasmic fraction of cultured rat hepatoma cells. As in the case of the nuclear receptors in the same cells, the binding affinities of various steroids for the cytoplasmic receptors are closely correlated with the activities of these compounds as inducers of both tyrosine aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.5) and cell adhesiveness. This suggests that the binding reaction is important for the biological effects of the hormones. Steroid-binding activity is inhibited by various proteases, mercurials, and 1 M KCl, but not by DNase or RNase. The receptors sediment in sucrose gradients in 0.5 M KCl near 4S, and at lower ionic strength near 7S; some of their physical properties are altered upon binding steroid. Bound dexamethasone can be recovered from the receptors as the unaltered steroid.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
