摘要
1. The antiinflammatory actions of glucocorticoid steroids are thought to occur through induction of the protein lipocortin-1 (LC-1;annexin-1). The purpose of the current study was to investigate whether astrocytic LC-1 content was increased in the presence of a synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone. 2. Steroid-induced changes in cellular levels of LC-1 in astrocytes were determined by electrotransfer and immunoblotting techniques. Separate cell fractions were investigated to study the influence of dexamethasone on astroglial LC-1 content, The effect of culture state an LC-1 expression was also examined. 3. Intracellular LC-1 content was found to decrease after initiation of culture, with a substantial rise in both cell proliferation and LC-1 expression occurring after the replenishment of medium containing steroid-free serum, A further increase in intracellular LC-1 occurred upon incubation with dexamethasone, The glucocorticoid-induced change in intracellular LC-1 was a time-dependent event and coincided with an increase in membrane-associated LC-1. 4. The findings in this study indicate that astrocytic LC-1 content is influenced by cell culture conditions and, in the presence of glucocorticoid steroids, the cellular localization of LC-1 is altered. This may indicate that LC-1 has functions at more than one cellular locality.
