Abstract:We investigated the optimal conditions for measuring glucocorticoid receptor in blast cells from patients with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia. Cytosol receptor measured with isoelectric focusing was saturated after 60 min of incubation at 0 degrees C with 100 nM of either dexamethasone or triamcinolone. Saturation was achieved when cytosol from at least 7 X 10(6) cells was used for incubation. Trypsin treatment of the cytosol resulted in a sharpened peak of receptor focusing at pH 5.6 with no loss of receptor-b… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
