Title: | Modifications of rat liver glucocorticoid receptor by insulin-induced hypoglycemia | Authors: | Matić, Gordana Trajković, D. Damjanović, S. Petrović, J. |
Issue Date: | 1990 | Journal: | Biochim. Biophys. Acta | Series/Report no.: | 1051;192-198 | Abstract: | Stability-, equilibrium- and kinetic binding parameters, transformation rate and sedimentation properties of liver cytosoi glucocorticoid receptor from insulin-treated rats were studied. 40% elevation of cytosolic glucocorticoid binding and a lower affinity of the receptor for ligand were observed in hypoglycemic rats as compared to the controls. A small but significant decrease of [3H]triamcinolone acetonide-receptor complexes association rate and an increase of dissociation rate were also found. The rate and the extent of activation of the complexes from insulin-treated rats were somewhat higher compared to the controls, and the complexes from both groups showed higher affinity for the nuclei isolated from insulin-treated animals. Mixing experiments suggested that insulin treatment lead to alterations at the level of both the receptor protein and the nuclear binding sites. Sedimentation properties of transformed and untransformed receptor remained unchanged upon insulin treatment. The physiological relevance of the data was confirmed by hypoglycemia-related stimulation of tyrosine aminotransferase induction by dexamethasone. |
